Failure, Fear & Finding Your Voice Online with Sean Mort

This week, Sean Mort opens up about his first failed attempt at filming his new “chippy review” series and what it really taught him about creativity, confidence, and the messy reality of trying something new. Brickey coaches Mort through how to rebuild his process, including crafting story-driven B-roll, learning to perform naturally on camera, and structuring ideas around curiosity rather than perfection.

From there, the conversation widens into a creative therapy session about content creation in 2025, how to overcome imposter syndrome, how to hook audiences in the first five seconds, and why embracing personality-driven storytelling is the key to growth. They also debate the dangers of overexposure, the fine line between brand and character, and how to stay authentic while still marketing yourself.

It’s an episode about failure, learning in public, and redefining success in the age of social media.
