Welcome to episode 1 of *Articulating Interests* — a podcast where I talk about the things I’m interested in, the lessons I’m learning, and the thoughts I’m processing in real time.
In this first episode, I talk about my journey as KeepUpRadio, the ups and downs of being a full-time creator, burnout, people pleasing, setting boundaries, and the recent criticism I received for using AI in some of my creative projects.
I also share how unlearning people pleasing helped me handle online backlash in a healthier way, why I’m learning that sensitivity and confidence can coexist, and how I’m choosing to stay creatively fulfilled even when not everyone agrees with my choices.
Let me know what you think of episode 1 and what topics you’d like me to talk about in future episodes. ✨
