Feeling overwhelmed by con prep? You’re not alone. In this episode, we get real about the emotional toll of cosplay in the lead-up to conventions—burnout, stress, FOMO, budgeting struggles, and the pressure to do everything. We unpack the hidden costs of the hustle and share practical strategies to help you manage time, money, expectations, and your own mental health. Whether you’re deep in the con crunch or debating if you should even go, this one’s for anyone trying to keep the magic alive without losing their mind.
