Hiya friends, Last night I had the privilege of sitting on a panel to talk about my food career. When the moderator asked us what advice we’d give to someone who wants to build a career in food media, all three panelists said some version of the same thing: Just start. Start small, start with a rough idea, start moving your ideas from your head to whatever is your medium - just start. Don’t try to make it perfect.
This post about perfectionism SO resonates with me. It is beautifully written and deeply appreciated. And, for what it's worth, posts like this are helping me "wake up" to completely ridiculous assumptions I’ve held all my life, like: If you just “try hard enough” you won’t have to feel incompetent OR vulnerable. Oy!
