Episode #3: I asked AI to write this episode’s description. Here it is! “My journey grappling with societal labels and feeling pigeonholed into certain roles due to these labels. I stress the importance of not allowing societal labels to dictate who you are, embracing your creative side, and carving out your own unique path. I use the analogy of the 'Second Mountain' to explain my shift from focusing on self-definition to nurturing my creative expression. I also share my vision for creating a personal holding company focused on creative projects that balance personal expression with societal benefit.”
