What keeps a creator going when the money isn’t?

In this solo episode, Pratyush takes you on a raw, vulnerable, and unfiltered journey into the reality of building when you're broke, not just financially, but emotionally and mentally too.

This isn’t just a podcast episode. It’s a mirror, a reset, and a permission slip for every underdog who's still creating while silently surviving.

In this audio experience, we explore:

• The emotional toll of creating with zero returns
• The shame around not monetizing your passion
• The difference between passion and profit
• Real stories of quiet persistence
• Why creating while broke still matters
• How to reclaim your identity when the numbers don’t match the effort

If you’ve ever whispered “what’s the point?” while still pressing record, this episode is the answer you didn’t know you needed.
