If there were ever a podcast episode for when someone has ripped apart your art or who you are as a person - this would be it.

This is a call to arms. Making a stand against harsh, unfair and unconstructive criticism.

A reminder for anyone who considers themselves a creative that nobody can rob you of your joy, your passion or your conviction unless you let them.

And a nod to how bloody hard it is to get back up again time and time again.

This episode is brought to you by chocolate chip cookies, tears and a glass of rosé. I hope it lifts you from the depths of despair and gets you back on the horse you belong on.
