In this episode we take ourselves back in time a little bit to tell our younger selves that life won't be too bad and what we should and shouldn't avoid in the hobby! It was fun to sit down and talk about the things that we'd have done differently in the hobby and the reassurances that we'd give ourselves in order to grow into the hobby we love so much.

We're back and this time we're hitting a subject close to our hearts - hobby burnout. It's something that everyone in the hobby has encountered at one point or another and we thought it was really important to have it as a topic early on. We talk all about what can cause hobby burnout and how we (and you) tackle our burnouts to make sure we still enjoy the hobby we all love.
