Hi everyone. I&#8217;m Beth Barany. I run How to Write The Future Podcast. Welcome, so glad that you&#8217;re here. I&#8217;ve been doing a mini series around creative entrepreneurship, and I really wanna talk about trust.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Trust in yourself. Trust in other people. Trust in what&#8217;s out there in the world. Who do you trust? What do you trust?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[00:29] Trust Recession Reality\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I&#8217;ve heard some people talk about the trust recession, and okay, I get it. And when I hear that, I feel, honestly, I feel like it&#8217;s a little bit of a cop out, but I also understand, because there is so much misinformation out there because with today&#8217;s tools, the AI tools, we can create fake this and fake that.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">But at the end of the day, when you are sitting in front of someone or when you&#8217;re with yourself talking to yourself, journaling, working on your creative work, the question comes down to you. What do you trust? Who do you trust? I hope the answer is: yourself. Trust yourself.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[01:07] Berkeley Turning Point\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When I was 19 years old in, in a major transition in my college education, I was leaving pre-med, actually, this might&#8217;ve been happening right before I decided to leave pre-med.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I remember walking across campus at UC Berkeley, and they have that beautiful, um, Sather Gate, beautiful gate, and it&#8217;s a bridge. You&#8217;re actually crossing over a creek. And I remember walking across through the gate over this creek and just feeling lost and confused. I&#8217;m like, I&#8217;m not doing well in biology. I love biology, but I&#8217;m not doing well. The chemistry is kicking my butt. I barely passed chemistry my first year. Here I am my second year, my fall semester, first semester of my second year, and I&#8217;m just sad and hating, hating life. But I&#8217;m 19 years old and I have a, normally a very positive, hopeful outlook, but I was sad.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I was depressed.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[01:58] Grounding in the Real\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And I remember walking across that bridge and saying to myself, well, what is real? What do I know? I feel completely lost. I feel completely unmoored. This dream of being a doctor that I had said I wanted to be since I was six years old, was slipping away. I&#8217;m like, if I can&#8217;t even pass biology, what&#8217;s the point?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And I remember asking myself What is real? And I was feeling my breathing, and I was feeling my steps and I was listening to the beautiful redwood trees that were blowing in the breeze that were lining the creek. And I heard the creek flowing under the bridge, and I&#8217;m like, well, if nothing else, those things are real.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">My footsteps, my breathing, the trees, the water, the earth, and I knew everything would be okay. I still didn&#8217;t have any answers. I hadn&#8217;t yet made the decision to leave the sciences and stop my pre-med path, but I was sure of those things. I&#8217;m like, if nothing else, I am sure of those things.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[02:54] Meditation and New Path\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And I actually used meditation to get through finals that semester &#8217;cause this must have been around finals time. I remember meditating for 20 minutes before I started studying for finals every single day for like five days to just calm my system down and be able to just show up and take tests. I was an excellent student up to then, but I was, I think I got like a B minus in biology by the end of the semester, &#8216; cause the chemistry, as soon as they reintroduced chemistry halfway through the, the term, my ability to understand everything was going downhill.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So long story short, I dropped out of pre-med, and I went into the social sciences, and I learned that my strength was conceptual thinking, not equations.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I learned at that turning point in my life that I could trust my physicalness, the earth&#8217;s physicalness, and sometimes that&#8217;s all we have.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[03:47] Applying Trust to Business\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So, in difficult days when I&#8217;m struggling with my story or I&#8217;m struggling with my creative entrepreneur business. I turn to what I know and to what I trust, which is my emotions, my breathing, my physical body, and often it&#8217;s a sign I need to do a bunch of self-care.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Now, what does this mean for you? If you&#8217;re a creative writer and you&#8217;re curious about starting your own business, or maybe you&#8217;ve already started your own business and you&#8217;re looking for some guidance, I invite you to ask yourself: What can you trust? What do you trust? What do you already trust?\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[04:18] Writers Trust Superpower\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Creative writers, we have a superpower. If you&#8217;re writing fiction, if you&#8217;re writing science fiction and fantasy, and that&#8217;s who I primarily speak to, and that&#8217;s who I primarily help in my own writing business.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then there is a lot of trust you&#8217;ve actually already built up as you work on your stories. I hope.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And there is a risk involved in trusting ourselves, &#8217;cause maybe your instincts are telling you to go in a different direction than the common ideas out there, and that is a clear indication that you are thinking forward, you&#8217;re thinking into things that haven&#8217;t yet been created.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And that&#8217;s what we do as creative writers. So there&#8217;s a lot of trust inherent already in being a creative writer.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And if now you&#8217;re turning your attention to helping others and serving others, whether through service or products or a combination like I do, then there is a lot of trust involved in that too.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You get to trust what you know, you get to trust your own experiences, which I imagine are vast and interesting and diverse. I look forward to getting to know you, and the reason I&#8217;m saying that is\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[05:22] Business Pivot and Audience\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">I&#8217;m making a big change in my business, and I&#8217;ve actually been making this pivot for a while, since about a year now, by the time you listened to this. And I&#8217;m very excited to be moving into also serving creative writers, fiction writers who want to serve other creative writers. And maybe you write in any of the genres, and maybe also memoir, short stories, children&#8217;s book writing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yes. It&#8217;s a yes to all of that. And now you wanna serve other writers, whether, like I said before, service provider products, or a combination. Maybe you wanna offer trainings or maybe you wanna offer workbooks. Maybe you wanna be a coach or maybe you wanna be an editor, all of that. Awesome.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">[06:02] Niche Bootcamp Invitation\u00a0<\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So I am inviting you to our Find Your Creative Entrepreneur Niche Bootcamp happening March 20th to 24th.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It is a paid event.
