Listen "Because You Like Cosplay – Not Because Everyone Approves"
Episode Synopsis
In this empowering episode, Scotty B brings cosplay back to its roots—doing it because you love it, not because it earns applause. He breaks down how external approval, online metrics, and comparison culture have quietly shifted cosplay from passion to performance.Through honest reflection, Scotty challenges the need for validation and explores what happens when creativity becomes a contest for likes instead of a celebration of self-expression. He reminds listeners that joy, not judgment, should drive the craft.This episode is a call to return to authenticity—to build, create, and play simply because it lights you up. Because if you’re not doing it for yourself, who are you really doing it for?Find the Sanctuary on Social:With Co-Host @astravoidcosplay Join Her Twitch Community!
