Ya know....I'm feeling (personally) that this reflects a few different pushy campaigns I'm overloaded with right now. Like "you need to make a paid course so that you too can make 70k in passive income while on vacation in Bali". The other is all about following the best selling trends in my area of choice (surface and fabric pattern design). AI was one of those sneaking in too, but I'm getting better at ignoring that fools gold. For a good while, I was feeling the "I'm not cool enough to join that party crowd" creep into my spirit pretty hard. Now I'm proud of myself for nerding out over here in my own realm with others who are okay with being "not cool". We welcome anyone else just looking for the same. No initiation ritual, mastermind, minimum follower count or perfect/glossy/unrealistic social presence required.
