❓How did you make the shift from being a consumer to being a producer?

It's easy to say, but I'm guessing there's a journey, and I'd like to hear about yours. What stirred you up? Was it a desire to express yourself, a cause you wanted to advance, fed up with doomscrolling into nothingness, the chance to earn/get recognised/other incentive? Did someone spot your talent, encourage you to go further? Did something else have to die to mak me way for new shoots - your job, or something else falling apart?

Or did you just wake up at 4am one day and say, in the voice of Jocko Willing, "stop consuming and start producing, and do it today"
