How can you tell when you should follow a trend, or “buck” the trend and blaze your own path? What’s the difference between being inspired by your influences and having your creativity tampered by the influence of others?
This week's episode dives into the creative challenge of trusting yourself and your instincts to create something uniquely you that will be appreciated by your audience.

Discouragement, Everything Is Expensive, & My Best Tech Purchase
The Enthusiasm Project

There's a lot to talk about this week! As we near the end of Season 6, I wanted to dive into a few topics that didn't work as standalone episodes, but that I still find fascinating.
We'll start off with a few voice submissions, then talk about microphones, how easy it can be to accidentally discourage someone, the idea that "expensive" is an entirely relative term, and I'll also share one of my absolute favorite tech purchases of all time.

Just when you thought it was safe...the Cameranundrum continues! This week I dive in to some less than great, but still not too terrible developments with my new Sony a7SIII, explain why I currently have two of them, and also give an exhilarating backstory to explain the intense anxiety I feel around large purchases and the outlandish sentimental value I attach to these objects What a ride!

This week's show is a less structured exploration of thoughts and issues, a lot of which center around what seems to be an emerging trend of Creator Ennui, which is very interesting to me as someone who recently broke through a few months of being in a creative funk.
That paragraph sounds very fancy, I wrote it real good.

This is the first in a series of episodes documenting my decision to leave my 11 year career as a teacher to become a full time content creator. In this first episode, Heather helps me to embrace the fact that this is something I want to do and helps me work through the initial rush of feelings (both good and bad) that come with that decision.

In the midst of transitioning from my teaching job, I'ver also been working to launch my first course. In what might have been one of the busiest and most stressful weeks of my life, I took the first step in announcing the course and trying to navigate the waters of selling a product without feeling "salesey" and gross.
Heather guided me through the whole process, which ended up being incredible. This episode breaks everything down and also covers the time management nightmare of having one foot in two different worlds as you move to a new career path.

Are Video Podcasts Worth the Effort?
The Enthusiasm Project
12/05/22 • 48 min
Send a text message to the show!
There’s no denying the rise in popularity of video podcasting, and as a lifelong audio/video production enthusiast I feel almost obligated to be excited about that...but I’m not.
While I definitely enjoy and appreciate video podcasts, I do think there’s a sense for many podcasters that it’s a requirement if you want anyone to enjoy your show, which can be hugely limiting. Adding video to an audio workflow is a huge undertaking that can easily become a barrier to entry.
So this week I’d like to explain why I personally prefer not to create video podcasts, just to provide a counter perspective for anyone who needs it.

Is Marketing Inherently Evil?
The Enthusiasm Project

In 4 years of "doing YouTube" my thoughts on marketing have changed quite a bit. Is it something that's inherently bad, or can it be a tool for good? Heather joins the podcast this week to talk about some recent "revelations" I've had about the confusing world of marketing.
