I Care About You

Want to know more? Visit my website: https://www.julianajbruno.com/ ORDER MY BOOK REASONS TO LIVE: https://a.co/d/eE12WwG How do we reinvent ourselves? What are the tools we need for success? What are the issues we face that drag us down? How do we reclaim our happiness? What is our true path, and does it even exist? Who am I? Where am I going? What is holding me back? How do we reclaim our true selves? This is a community of searchers. We are looking for our authentic selves, and we discuss the things that try to take individuality and identity from us. These things can be small and subtle, building up over time, or they can be huge and devastating. We look at all of them. The original name of this podcast is from a 1960s song, sung by Leslie Gore, that became a feminist anthem for the times. Although this is not a podcast on feminism, we are rooted in bringing to light all the ways we are controlled for and by others.

If you've ever felt like an outsider, even among friends or family, this episode is for you. We'll explore this experience through the lens of Carl Jung's analytical psychology, focusing on the concept of archetypes and, in particular, the "Outsider" archetype. Although the Outsider is a co...

Are you an outsider? You do see yourself as an outsider?

In this episode of the I Care About You Podcast, we dive deep into the persona of an outsider. Why we may resonate with the persona, how it helps and hurts us, and what we can do to find balance and connection. I talk about how I built it up in my mind as something "cool" about me, but then I realized the self-definition of an outsider was hurting me.

When paired with meditation, positive affirmations aren’t just fluffy feel-good phrases. They’re intentional see...

Today, we’re diving into something that might just change your relationships, stress levels, and overall sense of peace in your daily life. It’s a deceptively simple idea that’s gone viral, and it comes from someone I deeply respect: author and motivational speaker Mel Robbins. It’s called… The Let Them Theory.

Today on I Care About You, we’re diving into a cultural phenomenon that’s been buzzing across TikTok and beyond: Lucky Girl Syndrome.
