Talking to a camera never feels “natural.”

Talking to a camera is awkward

This video is a chance to provide some encouragement to those of you who may be thinking about giving up because you see all these well-spoken, carefully curated videos on the internet and feel like you suck at it compared to everyone else. So let me show you how terrible I am at this sometimes. I've compiled a bunch of bloopers and outtakes and even some behind-the-scenes footage that I haven't shared before.

For those who don't need the encouragement, well… you get some chuckles at my expense while I'm over here cringing - I'll get back to my regular content in the next video. But, in the meantime, sit back and enjoy the outtakes.

For those of you who do need the encouragement… just remember: there are plenty of healthy reasons to quit things, but don't do it simply because you feel embarrassed about where you are in your learning process. Everyone struggles with things they're not naturally good at, too - they just never tell you about that stuff. Hang in there.
