SXSW: Speaking and growing personally - Welcome podcaster Holly Shannon!

article image placeholderUploaded by @DBPardes
That's really the crux of why I have Culture Factor. Not an expert, but I love learning. I'm immensely curious. If I could have 60 podcasts, I would. And my podcast is really giving me the opportunity to learn things I don't know, which is everything to do with NFTs and Web Three, and we're all curious. And so I try to do that. And being at a show like this allows me to see am I asking the right questions?

Everyone has a voice! @HollyShannon #sxsw #swellinterview

My book! https://amzn.to/3nZfUto

That's why I was on YouTube University, and I wasted a ton of time trying to find all of the tools and answers to my questions. So that's why I built the book. In 60 pages, you have everything you need, but it's all the step by step. It's not higher levels conversation. It's actually the nitty gritty. So that you literally go from your idea to itunes. And that's how I built it

Access for all

So it's really a consistent message that you want people to have access to feel the democratization of this medium. So I have to drop in now and talk about the conversation you just had about NFPs and access and equanimity. It seems to be a theme. And anyone who wants to learn about NFTs in terms of the bare books, there's actually a lot of conversations in the last few months on her podcast about it

Power of questions

In between bites, Holly and I were just talking about what is access, what's equanimity what's all those fancy words mean to someone who has some selfesteem issues or doesn't feel like they are worth something or doesn't feel like they're they have a voice. And and what does that really mean to that person? And how can that narrative inside them shift? And both of us are fans of Renee Brown was here. Hollywood is able to hear her

The bully in Your head

What do you share with them, and how do you get them to the other side? And then I would suggest that the next time that bully is in your head and is taking over the conversation in a very unkind way, that you try to pretend that you're talking to your friend and even do it out loud if you need to. So that would be my advice there. As for podcasts, I love the nuance of voice. I love ideas

Your vision

Now that I kind of understand your Gestalt, I kind of see how you wake up in the morning and you probably have to sheer lead yourself into the next day and what that takes. Can you give us a little sense of I know it's like a vision board question, but I think you came into this a couple of years ago. You've got a great book. You got a great podcast

They didn't know I was yelling at them, but I kind of was. And it's just so interesting to me that people see that. Of course, they always see that shiny moment on Instagram and I'm guilty of publishing that too. All the highlight reel. Right? But I think we all have the ups and downs. And I would say that that process has brought me further, faster. Like just try not to avoid it, is what I would say there
