Embracing Whimsy: How to Life a Life on Your Own Terms
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
This week on Unstuck Career, I sit down with Faith Litchfield—the endlessly imaginative and hilarious creator I discovered on TikTok—for a conversation that’s all about embracing whimsy, free will, and the power of playful rebellion. Ever wondered what would happen if you stopped following all the “grown-up” rules and started injecting more fun and curiosity into your daily life? Faith brings stories of sending cheeky emails to corporations just for the joy of rejection, turning a cross-country move into a movie-worthy adventure, and inviting total strangers into spontaneous, offbeat conversations that break the ice and spark real connection.
We dig into what it looks like to live outside the box, from reimagining drive-thru coffee orders as cowboy duels to using childhood games as powerful tools for adult stress relief. Faith reveals why “whimsy is a skill” that you can practice and strengthen, even when others tell you it’s time to be serious—or flat-out accuse you of being “too old for that.” Her stories, like deep-diving into the most bizarre corners of the internet or turning mundane tasks into mini-adventures, challenge us to question the rules we've all internalized about how to act, connect, and find joy.
If you’ve ever felt stuck playing by invisible rules or wondered how to bring more fun and lightness into your life and work, this episode is your invitation to play. For a taste of Faith’s wild world, check her out on TikTok at @faithisntcool and on Instagram at @faithissonotcool—and if you want to see the original video that inspired this conversation, you might even find it linked in the show notes!
