Take #45 - Toronto Creator Confessions: MLB Playoffs, HBO Must-Watch & My AI Diagnosis
That Digital Take with Torri WebsterShow Notes
Welcome back to That Digital Take! Today’s episode is half October Faves… half creative self-intervention. 😂 This month has been VERY Toronto coded — Blue Jays playoffs at the Rogers Centre, fall food cravings, Thanksgiving comfort cooking, and an unexpectedly terrifying content trip to a cranberry bog in rural Quebec with Ocean Spray (yes… the viral 2007 commercial recreation… yes, it went VERY viral). PLUS — I’m talking: • sustainable luxury fashion in Toronto (VSP Consignment girlies… if you know, you know) • my new must-watch obsession → TASK on HBO / Crave • AND we’re diving deep into something trending all over TikTok: asking AI to reveal our “creator curse” This week… mine was Restless Brilliance. Which sparked a whole conversation around blindspots, burnout cycles, creative reinvention, over-optimization, perfectionism, and how creators (and entrepreneurs) can actually grow by getting brutally self-aware. --- Toronto creator podcast, Blue Jays playoffs, MLB Toronto Blue Jays, VSP Consignment Toronto review, sustainable fashion Toronto, fall trends 2025, influencer blindspots, TikTok creator burnout, content creator mindset, creative entrepreneurship, TASK HBO review, Ocean Spray cranberry bog, viral content strategy tips, how to grow on social media 2025, AI creative prompts, what is my curse trend TikTok
