In this episode, I talk about the question that has been following me around like a stray dog with abandonment issues:

“What am I doing wrong?”

A late-night Zoom call.

A missed phone call that might have cost me a job.

Fabric mocking me at 2 AM.

Postponing Christmas.

Pretending patience is a virtue when really it’s just a financial liability.

This one is not a framework or a lesson.

It is a confession.

A pressure valve.

A look at the part of the creative journey nobody posts about because it is messy and embarrassing and makes you question whether you even belong in the room.

We get into:

• Saying yes to work you should have said no to
• Anxiety disguised as professionalism
• The career panic nobody warns you about
• The gap between what we preach and what we actually do
• What our kids see when we are barely holding it together
• The tension between craft, performance, and being human

If you have ever wondered whether you are behind, off-track, or quietly failing your way through your creative life, this episode is for you.
