Not all support is helpful - and sometimes the people closest to you hurt your creative journey without realizing it. In this episode, we talk about the backhanded encouragement, fear disguised as advice, and the kind of “support" that discourages more than it uplifts. If you've ever felt misunderstood, dismissed, or doubted while chasing your dreams, this episode will make you feel seen.

If you would like to share any stories, questions, topics, encouraging words, etc., send an email to [email protected] and I will share them on the next episode!
