#4 Nothing To Lose

This episode of Millennial explores the origin story of the podcast itself, focusing on the anxieties and challenges Megan Tan faced in launching her project. Megan felt like a fraud because she wanted to be a radio producer but had never produced a radio piece. The podcast idea came from Ben, but Megan struggled with self-doubt and procrastination, delaying the first episode's production for months. A conversation with fellow radio producer Alex revealed that perfectionism and fear of failure were major obstacles. Ultimately, Megan overcame her inertia by setting a firm deadline and committing to proving to herself and Ben that she could follow through, finally releasing the first episode after four months of struggle.
