Wearing Pants Again
An Introduction
In this episode, I share the meaning behind the name Wearing Pants Again and what this podcast is all about — reconnecting, creating, and showing up even when it feels messy or vulnerable.
00:00:10:01 - 00:00:33:06
Hi. Welcome to Wearing Pants Again. I'm Lauren Siegal, your host. Now, you might be wondering what is with the name of this podcast. Despite the artwork for this podcast, it is not about fashion. Wearing Pants Again is the name of a song that I heard recently, and it really just stuck with me.
00:00:33:06 - 00:00:43:07
Wearing pants again became a way to describe the feeling of reengaging with the world, creating again, and connecting again.
00:00:43:07 - 00:01:01:18
this podcast is part of that process. It is a way to hopefully reconnect with myself and with others through conversations about creativity, identity, and the courage that it takes to keep going even when things feel messy or uncertain.
00:01:01:21 - 00:01:20:08
Here I will be talking with artists and creators about their work, the creative process, and simply connecting with people to hear their stories and their insights. I am somebody who has a lot of different creative interests.
00:01:20:08 - 00:01:39:21
But I sometimes feel that I get creatively blocked and just don't allow myself to create. I think I've just been scared of putting myself out there and honestly being seen and judged by people.
00:01:39:23 - 00:01:48:21
So I'm hoping that the conversations I have on this podcast can possibly help me overcome my own creative blocks.
00:01:48:21 - 00:01:53:09
But we could talk about that later in another episode.
00:01:53:09 - 00:02:05:04
I know there are a million other podcasts out there, and honestly, if even just one person listens to this and gets something out of it and that is awesome.
00:02:05:06 - 00:02:30:15
More than anything, I am just looking forward to the conversations that I'm going to have on here and just getting to hear what people have to say and getting to connect and hopefully have some meaningful conversations with people. So to sum it all up, wearing pants again for me is about stepping forward and showing up for your work and for yourself.
00:02:30:15 - 00:02:36:11
Even when it feels vulnerable. Thank you for joining me on this journey.
