We’re here to have honest, nuanced, and sometimes uncomfortable conversations about what it really means to run a business that is both profitable and radically principled.

26. Fear of being cancelled, Part 2: Why you’re probably not cancellable
What if everything you think you know about being "canceled" is wrong?
Your fear of being canceled is based on two common misconceptions about how the world works. Today I'm addressing those misconceptions with evidence that might surprise you.
In this episode:
- Why being "nobody special" is your superpower — the math behind why cancellation attempts fail for most creators
- The attention span problem plaguing internet mobs — why even major controversies have expiration dates measured in days
- The comeback formula hiding in plain sight — what successful recoveries reveal about audience psychology
- Why good intentions aren't just nice-to-have — the practical protection that comes from genuine service
Ready to stop creating from fear? This is part 2 of 3 in my series on overcoming the fear of being canceled once and for all. Enjoy this episode, and tune in next week.
