The Equity Gap
What if you just stopped trying to fix yourself?
I don't know, there is something I hate about the pressure to create and fulfill new year resolutions that are often rooted in fixing things we find flawed or imperfect about ourselves. The desire to fix what isn't even broken in the first place is such indoctrination from a society that deems us not being enough without hustle culture, discipline and perseverance. No more new year, new me BS. The latest episode of the podcast is a hopeful reframe for all those sick and tired of buying into the false reality of some flawed versions of ourselves.
