Am I Doing This Right? - Comparison, Creativity & Capitalism

Lately, I’ve been sitting with a quiet but persistent question: Am I doing this right?

In this episode, I dive into the tender space between creativity and comparison, between romanticizing life and feeling the weight of expectation. From witnessing other château creators to reflecting on how capitalism shapes our identity and value, this episode unpacks what it means to live slowly, queerly, and intentionally—while still wondering if it's enough.

I talk about self-worth, identity, and the illusion of unconditional love. I also share why questioning ourselves might not be a weakness—but part of a deeper, more thoughtful way of living.

Whether you're navigating rural life, trying to live authentically, or just feeling a little lost—you’re not alone in asking the big questions.

💬 Do you ever wonder if you’re doing it “right”? Drop me a comment or send a message—I’d love to hear your thoughts.
