You know that vicious little voice inside your head telling you you're a fraud?

Today's guest Terri Trespicio has some thoughts on it. Because there's nothing worse than being bullied by your own brain.

Terri's an award-winning writer and speaker. She’s delivered a wildly successful TED Talk with over 8 million views. Gosh.

She knows a lot about that nasty internal voice. We discuss why imposter syndrome will never respond to evidence, the crucial difference between your inner critic and your intuition + why confidence is slightly overrated.

Plus - randomly, what the ocean has to do with your writing practice...

Do go back and listen to Terri's first episode on her book, Unfollow Your Passion.

Books discussed in this episode:

The Existential King - Carolyn Elliott

Meditations for Mortals - Oliver Berkman

What can a quiet little boy, a dying tree and a box of lost mittens teach us about standing out in a world of bland and often AI-generated copy?

Quite a lot, actually.

Rachel Allen - copywriter, author + Chief Marketing Officer - joins me to discuss Jacques Goldstein's gorgeous picture book Bertolt.

We discuss why it's a masterclass in messaging, what grief has to do with your best creative work + why the people who say the least often understand the most.

And a small bonus - the number one piece of copy advice Rachel is handing out this year.

Look for more Classics episodes for more kids book foolishness + the answers to the business questions nobody's asking… but, perhaps should be.
