Why Do We Have Podcasts & YT Channels? | The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly Sides of Content Creating.

Are you curious about the life behind Podcasting and Youtube? In this next episode, I brought together a dynamic group of Podcasters and YouTube content creators. We discussed the good, the bad, and the ugly parts of having our platforms. Also, we get candid about our challenges, our burn-outs, "the comment section," staying true to ourselves, and our overall drive to curate content for the public. Enjoy!
