Amateur vs. Professional: wtf does it actually mean

Send us Fan MailInstagram post and heartfelt answers from readersIn episode 47 of Audacity Works, we're going to challenge the status quo, examining the loaded implications and the undeserved hierarchy the labels of "professional" and "amateur" have built in our world. Let's shed light on why these labels are less stigmatizing in sectors like sports, and come to our own conclusions. I also wanna take a second to decouple 'professional' from its accrued connotations of moral superiority, technical skill, and commitment. I'd also like to celebrate the amateur artist, hobbyist and the recreational artist, acknowledging their immense contribution to the arts spectrum. This episode is an invitation for us to redefine these labels autonomously, eroding their oppressive power and recognizing the inherent value in all forms of artistic expression. Don't go back to sleep.xoRachelSign up here for monthly blasts and functional wooFind me on InstagramSupport this podcast on Patreon
