    188: I'd Rather Be Disliked Than Be Fake - Authenticity Talk
    Nov 12 2025
    ✨ In today’s episode, we talk about choosing authenticity over approval.

    We’ve all been there — shrinking ourselves so people will like us, doubting our art because of opinions, or making decisions based on how we’ll be perceived. But what happens when we finally decide…

    💥 “I’d rather you dislike me for being myself than love me for being someone else.”

    We discuss:
    • people-pleasing
    • releasing outside validation
    • creative confidence
    • setting boundaries
    • choosing YOU

    If you're an artist, a creative, or someone who’s tired of worrying about what others think — this episode is for you.

  • 186: Why People Don’t Celebrate Your Wins (and Why You Should Anyway)

    186: Why People Don’t Celebrate Your Wins (and Why You Should Anyway)
    Oct 29 2025
    In this episode of The Grae Area Podcast, we talk about the importance of showing the world how to treat you — especially when it comes to your creativity. Why do people cheer louder when you get a 9–5 than when you follow your dream? How do you stay excited about your art when the money hasn’t caught up yet?

    From “business showers” to taking naps before celebrating wins, this one’s about self-celebration, trust, and keeping your joy even when others don’t understand your vision.
