What makes someone “allowed” to be seen? To show up online? To share their art, their joy, their body, their creativity?

This episode of No Face Card Needed opens up a heartfelt conversation about unsolicited opinions, those drive-by comments about your looks, your body, or your vibe that come from people who don’t know you at all. Whether you're a boudoir client, a cosplayer, a content creator, or someone just daring to take up space, this one's for you.

Ash from Ash & Thistle Artistry shares a deeply personal and compassionate take on what it means to exist boldly in a world that sometimes mistakes visibility for permission. We explore how these comments don’t define you, and how to hold your power even when people don’t understand your art or your reason for showing up.

Because your value isn’t up for debate.
Because creativity has no prerequisites.
Because you don’t need a "face card" to be worthy of being seen.

🎧 Tune in for a conversation that bridges art, body image, and self-expression—and gently invites everyone to do better.

Because neutrality is the baseline, not the finish line.
