Define "Deserve" w/ Brandon Collins

In this latest episode of Authenticate, Kate McLeod invites on Brandon Collins, a wearer of many hats—comedian, producer, writer, cultural critic—but the thread running through all of it is his ability to keep building, even when the blueprint falls apart. In this episode, they get into what it means to shape a creative identity without permission, what success feels like when imposter syndrome tries to rewrite the story, and how to keep showing up in rooms you’re not sure you’re allowed in.This conversation moves through early trauma, internalized doubt, creative discipline, and the risk of fully owning your voice. And in it, Kate asks questions that push us toward a deeper understanding of why we do what we do—and how we keep doing it even when it feels like too much.The Big Leap by Gay Fredericks https://a.co/d/iB0VFbe"Fear is excitement without the breath." –Fritz Perls, a founder of Gestalt Therapy Kate McLeod WebsiteAuthenticated All Access
