02| Clout Chasin’ Isn’t The Wave

Ep. 2

Cat reflects on her Labor Day weekend, and a recent situation that forced her to analyze the worth she was giving herself as a creative entrepreneur. She expounds on her perspective of the rising glorification of "clout chasing" and how it's affecting modern-day culture. She wonders how people will view self-determination in the future and claims this to be a wake-up call for anyone stuck in the fame chasing lifestyle. Cat believes that every single person is born with unique talents they can offer the world and there's no need to hide behind the shadows of anyone else's.


Quotes


"I was forced to see how willing people were to plot on others"


"Clout chasers can be found in every circle"


"These people gravitate to those who have what they want but they don't want to create it for themselves"


"If it's clout that you're after, go create it for yourself"


Quote of the Week


Create your own committees, build your own institutions, give your friends awards, award yourself, and be the gold you wanna hold my g's- Solange Knowles
