Listen Later

In this episode, Caitlin Liz Fisher expands on the prevalent online creative hustle culture and the pressures of constant content creation. It’s time to focus our attention on what it means to be seen and whether being an extrovert is essential to gain recognition in today's digital landscape.

Episode Highlights:

  • A closer look into online creative hustle culture

  • The extroversion dilemma: ‘do extroverts have an advantage in the digital world?’

  • Bo Burnham's experience achieved fame through online platforms while grappling with the challenges of being a public figure

  • The importance of authenticity and self-expression in creative work

  • Noteworthy Quotes:

    • “To think that you need to put your humanity online and produce it, you have to produce and perform your humanity in order to feel seen. And that's not, that's not what life is about and that's not what art is about and that's not what creativity is about.”

    • “We live in a culture that sort of requires extroversion, and I don't think all of us are extroverted. I think some of us are thriving in it, but some of us aren't. This sort of idea that if you are not expressing yourself, you are not seen - and you are not living, if you aren't being seen and watched.”
