Did you ever have someone in your life who had the nerve to tell you that you weren’t “using it enough," and proceeded to take it away? Maybe it was a hobby or, I don't know, a passion project... yep, we've been there too! From childhood trauma (RIP Lorelei the guitar ) to adult reclamation of play and joy, to having a camera sold by a partner who couldn’t handle your natural talent, this is an episode about pacing, permission, and refusing the sad beige narrative that says your hobbies have to be useful, profitable, or productive to be worth it.
💬 "We are not obligated to like wear flour sack dresses and be like the most simple, plain minimalist people that we could possibly be, so that we never waste time or money. That's boring! That's sad! THAT'S BEIGE! I don't wanna be sad and beige. I want to be colorful and bright and glittery." - Caitlin
