Ever published content only to be met with silence? In this encouraging episode, Dylan explores the crucial gap between creation and recognition that causes many creators to give up just as they're building momentum.

You'll discover:

• Why the silence after hitting publish isn't a verdict (even though we treat it like one)
• How misinterpreting early feedback leads to unnecessary self-doubt
• The importance of not assigning destructive meaning to natural lag time
• Why your creative journey might lead to unexpected opportunities beyond views or money
• A mindset shift to help you stop getting in your own way

Worried about AI replacing creators? In this thought-provoking episode, Dylan challenges us to consider a more immediate concern: are we replacing ourselves in the pursuit of algorithmic success?

You'll discover:

• Why chasing tools and tactics without self-reflection leads to slow but significant drift
• How 'perfectly optimized' content often feels completely lifeless
• The critical difference between mastering AI tools and building a world that's unmistakably yours
• A simple one-question test to evaluate if you're creating from authenticity
• Why the most successful creators will sidestep the AI debate entirely

This episode also explores the concept of blind spots - those invisible barriers preventing you from doing what you know you want to do. Learn why the final 5% of progress often requires human connection rather than more AI assistance, tools, or motivation.

Whether you're feeling the pressure to keep up with every new AI development or simply noticing your content feels less 'you' than it used to, this conversation offers a refreshing perspective on staying grounded in your creative purpose.
