TW: Pet death, possible offensive language- not swearing
Welcome Emily and Jake the African Grey onto the pod today! She and I have become good friends over the years and I love talking to her. We talk about birds but the majority of this podcast is about being a content creator and what it takes to be on social media. It is so much harder than what many people think it is. Being a content creator will bring out some of your biggest insecurities and will force you to grow a thicker skin. We discuss this in depth in this Chapter. The thing that I love about this podcast is bonding with women who are so similar to me. But that means we tend to go on side quests while we chat. Emily and I do that a little here, but all of the conversations are valid. I love Emily, her heart and the way her brain works. She is so willing to share her “weird and dirty life” with us, and I am so here for it! I think we all are just a little weird here.
Thank you for being patient with us. I'm debating on taking a break for the summer and just recording a bunch of chapters so that we can catch up and have consistent content for you all during our “season.”
