Michelle York & Kelsey Martinez Episode 31

In this episode of The Thick Podcast, Michelle and Kelsey dive into the hot topic of the viral “influencers in New York” video trending currently. They share their thoughts on the conversation surrounding influencers, internet culture, and public perception. Then, they share about the highs and lows of being a full-time creator, burnout, the slumps, the pressure to perform, and the toll that mean comments and view counts can take on creativity. How do you stay motivated? How do you separate your self-worth from social media metrics? Michelle and Kelsey open up about navigating the emotional rollercoaster of social media, finding balance, and reclaiming the joy of creating just for the love of it. And a special guest pops in midway, their bestie @‌aisforannie Annie to share her thoughts.
