What happens when you stop creating a life that makes sense from the outside—and start choosing what genuinely feels like you?In this season-one finale, Liz reflects on intuition, ambition, legacy and the vulnerability of creating meaningful work. She explores the difference between rapidly releasing ideas and slowly developing a cohesive body of work, why other people’s perceptions can pull artists away from themselves, and how choosing joy can lead us home again and again.Liz also shares a passage from Brianna Wiest’s 101 Essays That Will Change the Way You Think and considers what changes when we stop living for how others might remember us.Tell Me More About That returns for season two on Wednesday, 11 November 2026.DO WHAT MAKES YOU FEEL LIKE YOUSeason 1, Episode 9 — Tell Me More About ThatIn this short, free-flowing season finale, Liz asks a deceptively simple question: what makes you feel most like yourself?Rather than interpreting our choices through the imagined opinions of other people, Liz invites us to follow what feels joyful, intuitive and deeply meaningful—even when we don’t yet know where it will lead.This episode explores:• Choosing what feels like you• Following intuition without needing a complete plan• Coming home to yourself again and again• Releasing the pressure to constantly achieve• Creativity as a meaningful personal legacy• The danger of viewing yourself through other people’s eyes• Making art whether people are praising it, criticising it or saying nothing• The vulnerability of developing a cohesive body of work• Creating personal art while culture and the wider world continue to shift• Separating your work from external perceptions and expectations• Setting intentions without forcing an exact timeline• Getting out of your head and returning to the experience of being aliveBOOK MENTIONED101 Essays That Will Change the Way You Think by Brianna WiestWebsite: https://www.briannawiest.com/Book: https://utpdistribution.com/9781945796067/101-essays-that-will-change-the-way-you-think/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/briannawiest/EPISODE PARTNERSRooted WithinHolistic wellness support connecting mind and body through services including functional nutrition, naturopathic medicine, meditation, yoga and Reiki.Website: https://www.rootedwithinwellnessspace.com/Instagram: @rootedwithinwellnessLiakadaA woman-owned creative agency helping brands clarify their positioning and tell stronger stories through strategy-led content, creative direction, photography and video.Website: https://www.liakada.io/Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/liakada.io/6TM MagazineA curated collection of experimental fonts, graphics, mockups, templates, motion assets, effects and textures for designers and creators.Website: https://shop.6tm-magazine.com/Instagram: @6tm_magazineUse code TELLMEMORE20 for 20% off your order.

In this episode of Tell Me More About That, Liz reflects on how social media and AI shape our inner worlds—often more than we realize. What happens when expression and connection stop being the point, and the first instinct becomes, “I wonder what ChatGPT would say”?Liz unpacks the emotional, environmental, and ethical layers of our relationship with technology, and makes the case for using these tools without letting them quietly take over our sense of self. From uncanny AI-generated ads to the subtle erosion of our attention and agency, this conversation invites you to reconsider how you show up online—and what real intimacy looks like beyond the screen.Sponsors & Resources MentionedLIAKÁDA – Story-Led Creative AgencyStrategy-led, story-driven content and visuals for brands that want to actually be seen.Website: liakada.ioInstagram: @liakada.ioTo inquire about working together: [email protected] Within – Functional Nutrition with EmmaIf you’re dealing with gut issues, hormone imbalances, autoimmunity, or just feeling “off” in your body and exhausted by traditional medicine, Emma from Rooted Within works holistically using:Functional lab testingNutrition and lifestyle supportRoot-cause-focused, compassionate careWebsite: rootedwithinwellnessspace.comInstagram: @rootedwithinwellnessBook a free consultation via her website or DM her on Instagram and tell her Liz from Tell Me More About That sent you.6TM – Candy Store for Creatives6TM Magazine is a curated platform for designers and creatives featuring:Experimental fonts and typefacesGraphic packs, mockups, templates, and texturesIndependent artists from around the world (quality over quantity)Feels like discovering an underground archive instead of scrolling a crowded marketplace.Website: search for “6TM Magazine”Instagram: @6_TM_magazineDiscount code: TELLMEMORE20 for 20% off your order (one-time use per customer)Instagram (Podcast): @tellmemoreaboutthatpodInstagram (Liz / LIAKÁDA): @liakada.ioEmail for ads, collabs, or feedback: [email protected] episodes every other WednesdayIf this episode resonated, share it with a deeply emotional creative in your life and let Liz know what landed most for you.Connect with Liz & the Podcast

In this solo rant, Liz shares a raw “survival guide for the deeply emotional” — touching on burnout, hopelessness, free will maxing, and what it actually means to have grace with yourself as a creative. She talks about social media, mortality, using what you have to make art (yes, including grout and papier-mâché lamps), and reads her poem “Fallen Tree.” This one’s for the creatives who feel everything, deeply.Trigger warning: mentions of hopelessness and suicidal thoughts (non-graphic), as well as mental health struggles.What We Talk AboutSurvival guide for the deeply emotionalWhy this episode started as a goalless, flow-state rantBeing honest about burnout and how hard creating can feelWhy this podcast will always be meta and process-focusedBurnout, discipline, and graceCreating inspirational videos 4–7 times a week for a yearWhy “I’m not disciplined” is often a lie we tell ourselvesHaving grace with yourself through health scares, new jobs, and life adminThe idea that modern “maintenance of life” is just our version of gathering food for the tribeSocial media, comparison, and self-protectionUnfollowing and muting people (even people you know) to protect your mental healthLetting your feed be a source of inspiration, not shameRemembering you’re a being that needs constant nurturing beyond food, water, shelterFree will maxing & building a life you actually like“We can do whatever the fuck we want” (within reason)Sending the text, asking the question, saying what you actually meanDating, rejection, and why most dissatisfaction just means you have tasteNot being able to paint your rental walls and what that reveals about self-expressionUsing what you have: rogue creativityMaking art with whatever’s already in your spaceThe idea of a grout + papier-mâché lamp and why lamps can transform a roomTreating constraints as prompts instead of evidence you’re failingHopelessness, hope, and stayingWhy losing hope can be a necessary step to finding it againIntellectualizing emotions: when it helps and when it doesn’tRemembering that dark moments are often about the end of a specific outcome, not the end of youNourishment basics: food, rest, comfort, and self-tending when everything feels pointless“If it keeps you here, do the thing”Poem: “Fallen Tree”Identifying with a fallen tree whose roots are exposedThe death of greatness when the odds were in your favorLetting go of hope as a paradoxical way to learn how to hope again“Do Not Skip” — Personal WorkLIAKÁDA – Story-Led Creative AgencyStrategy-led, story-driven content and visuals for brands that want to actually be seen.Website: liakada.ioInstagram: @liakada.ioTo inquire about working together: [email protected] Within – Functional Nutrition with EmmaIf you’re dealing with gut issues, hormone imbalances, autoimmunity, or just feeling “off” in your body and exhausted by traditional medicine, Emma from Rooted Within works holistically using:Functional lab testingNutrition and lifestyle supportRoot-cause-focused, compassionate careWebsite: rootedwithinwellnessspace.comInstagram: @rootedwithinwellnessBook a free consultation via her website or DM her on Instagram and tell her Liz from Tell Me More About That sent you.6TM – Candy Store for Creatives6TM Magazine is a curated platform for designers and creatives featuring:Experimental fonts and typefacesGraphic packs, mockups, templates, and texturesIndependent artists from around the world (quality over quantity)Feels like discovering an underground archive instead of scrolling a crowded marketplace.Website: search for “6TM Magazine”Instagram: @six_tm_magazineDiscount code: TELLMEMORE20 for 20% off your order (one-time use per customer)

In this solo rant, Liz Karamavros dives into the power of marketing and branding to shape culture, self-perception, and community. From Jaws and shark phobia to rebrands like Keep It Cleaner → Kic, Liz unpacks how brands can either prey on insecurities or empower people to trust themselves more.She explores authentic rebranding, creative identity, mentors, conscious marketing, and shares a new dystopian poem about algorithms, longing, and the moon.

After a few years in a stable marketing role in Sydney, she felt called to step away and pursue travel and creative work instead.

In this solo rant, Liz dives into the philosophical question of who we are versus what we own or manage — the difference between “I” and “my.” Drawing from Brianna Wiest’s book 101 Essays That Will Change the Way You Think, Liz explores how our bodies, thoughts, and responsibilities are “my,” while something deeper and less tangible is “I.”From there, she connects this idea to creativity, intuition, and authenticity, sharing how understanding her own “I” helped her move from a traditional, success-driven path into a more aligned creative life. Liz walks through her personal journey: growing up in a religious, traditional environment, choosing marine science over fashion, working in sailing and rigging, riding out the pandemic, moving through yoga teaching, design experiments, content creation, and ultimately co-founding Liakada and launching this podcast from Australia.The episode is both a philosophical exploration and a life-story backdrop for why this podcast exists — and a call for listeners to honor their own path, pivots, and persistent inner voice.Show NotesEpisode: S1E2 – The Parts of You That Aren’t “I” + How I Actually Got HereHost: Liz KaramavrosPodcast: Tell Me More About ThatA reading and reflection on a passage from Brianna Wiest’s 101 Essays That Will Change the Way You Think about:How this distinction shows up in art and creativity:A journaling prompt:Intuition vs anxiety:Why tiny, intuitive decisions (like saying no to coffee) carry the same energetic weight as big life moves (like crossing the country)Liz’s personal story and context:Liz invites you to:Try the “I / my” journaling exercise this weekNotice where your I-needs (intuition, deeper purpose) and my-needs (body, survival, logistics) overlap and divergeHonor your own pivots without shaming where you came fromKeep saying yes to what lights you up — even in small, daily choicesIf you’re dealing with:Gut issuesHormone imbalancesAutoimmunityOr just feeling off in your body…and you’re not getting answers from the traditional medical system, Emma from Rooted Within works with you through functional lab testing, nutrition, and targeted support.Website: rootedwithinwellnessspace.comInstagram: @rootedwithinwellnessTell her Liz from Tell Me More About That sent you.Liacata is a woman-owned creative agency co-owned by Liz, helping brands refine and elevate how they show up through strategy-led content and thoughtful creative.They support you with:Brand positioning & storyCreative direction & content planningPhoto & video shoots for cohesive, strategic contentWebsite: www.liakada.ioInstagram: @liakada.ioIf you need content backed by strategy, send them a DM.For designers, content creators, and visual obsessives:6TM Magazine curates:Experimental fonts and typefacesGraphic packs, mockups, templatesPhotoshop effects and texture packsWork from independent artists around the worldIt feels more like discovering an underground archive than scrolling a marketplace.Use code TELLMEMORE20 for 20% off your order (one-time use)Website: 6TM Magazine (search online)Instagram: @6TM_magazineWant your brand in front of curious, creative minds who care about story, craft, and meaning?For ad spots & partnerships, contact:[email protected]

In this solo rant episode, Liz Karamavros explores the nuanced relationship between ambition, creativity, stagnation and apathy, especially through the lens of being neurodivergent and returning to her hometown. She shares how ambition can be both a supportive “pilot light” and a source of burnout, why creative energy needs space and softness, and how to recognize apathy as an urgent signal to pour back into yourself. The episode closes with a raw, personal poem.Follow the show on Instagram: @tellmemoreabouthtatpodShow Notes:Rooted Within – Functional Nutrition & Holistic SupportEmma – Rooted Within WellnessWebsite: rootedwithinwellnessspace.comInstagram: @rootedwithinwellnessFocus: Functional nutrition, gut health, hormones, and autoimmunity through lab testing, nutrition, and targeted support.Invitation: Book a free consultation or DM her on Instagram; mention Liz from Tell Me More About That.Liakada– Strategy-Led Creative AgencyLIAKADA – Woman-owned creative agencyWebsite: www.liakada.ioInstagram: @liakada.ioServices: Brand strategy, photo/video shoots, content planning, and cohesive, story-driven brand creative.Invitation: DM on Instagram if you need content backed by strategy and built to be seen.6TM Magazine – Creative Resources for Designers & Creators6TM Magazine – Curated digital goodies for creativesWebsite: 6TM magazine Instagram: @6TM_magazine What they offer: Experimental fonts, typefaces, graphic packs, mockups, templates, Photoshop effects, textures, and more—curated from independent artists worldwide.Discount code: TELLMEMORE20 for 20% off (1x use per customer).Episode Summary:Recording from home: Liz records from her hometown for the first time in years, reflecting on how different she feels compared to the person who left.Redefining “making it”: Challenges the classic narrative of leaving your small town and becoming “successful” in a linear way; instead defines success as self-acceptance, community, creative expression, and loving your life.Ambition as pilot light: Frames ambition/hunger as the pilot light that can spark motivation in any creative process—from cooking dinner to building a business.Jealousy as data: Reframes jealousy as a cousin to ambition—a sign of what you want, which can become inspiration if consciously channeled instead of projected.Creativity as life force: Describes creativity as a baseline life force that shows up in everything from conversation to eye contact, and not just in “capital C” creative work.Yin–yang of ambition and creativity:Private creativity that compounds: Emphasizes making things just for you as a way to recharge and compound creative energy without the pressure to share.Stagnation & overconsumption: When ambition takes over, it can lead to stagnation, scrolling, overconsumption, and dopamine depletion, making creating less satisfying.Apathy as an alarm bell: Names apathy/indifference as the true danger zone, like an energetic medical emergency—your cue to stop and deeply refill your own cup.Discipline vs intuition: Discipline matters, but over-rigidity can trap you in your head. Liz finds her sweet spot.Listening to your body: Encourages micro-practices—breathing, walking, doodling, nourishing meals—to rebuild energy when you feel lost, anxious, or indifferent.Poem share: Closes with a darker, vulnerable poem about fear, self-perception, and survival, modeling creative honesty and emotional processing.0:00 – Ambition Pilot0:00:13 – Show Intro0:01:01 – Hometown Return0:03:22 – Redefining Success0:05:00 – Neurodivergent Brain0:05:26 – Ambition Flame0:07:04 – Jealousy Alchemy0:10:00 – Private Creativity0:11:06 – Sponsor Break0:14:54 – Creativity Force0:16:25 – Yin–Yang Balance0:20:00 – Stagnation Loop0:22:00 – Apathy Alarm0:23:30 – Intuition 60/400:26:30 – Poem Share0:28:19 – Closing Love
