Ep 16: Do we ever really want creative feedback?

Love it or hate it, feedback is an inevitable component of the creative process when you choose to release your work into the wild. This week, Steph and Summer get meta with their thoughts on the whys, whens, and hows of receiving and giving creative feedback. 

We ultimately discover that there seems to be a value tier when it comes to feedback and, big sorry to friends and family, but as it turns out, you guys are at the bottom of the pile. Cheers! 

If you're feeling inspired to offer feedback after listening to us talk for half an hour about feedback, pop on over to Podchaser and leave us your thoughts: https://www.podchaser.com/podcasts/creatively-complicated-866546

Quotes:

“I hear these stories but I feel like they are Sasquatched or something. I don’t quite get  why you wouldn’t wanna know everybody that has the same interests in the world” -Steph

 (in response to where the discomfort with feedback exists) 

“...the anticipation that someone won’t like the work or that bad feedback is coming.”-Summer
