Dare to be Mediocre in 2025.
If you’ve ever felt stuck in the creative hamster wheel of trying to make every piece of content perfect, this episode is your permission slip to let go and just start posting. We’re talking about why accepting mediocrity is a totally valid first step, how overthinking is stealing your joy (and creativity), and why getting curious is the secret sauce to your most creative self.
Whether you're a small business owner, content creator, or just someone with big ideas trapped in your noggin, this pep talk will (hopefully!) leave you ready to create with less pressure and more flair.
What You’ll Hear in This Episode:
Why perfectionism is the ultimate content killer — and how mediocrity can save you.
The power of just posting to discover what truly resonates with your audience.
Lessons from my Find Your Flair (messaging program) clients about navigating content roadblocks.
A surprising takeaway from Wicked (and yes, Jonathan Bailey’s hips are involved).
