You can't be yourself until you know yourself and you can't know yourself if you're constantly abandoning yourself in pursuit of other people. You can watch the full episode video on Spotify and Youtube (the memes really add to the experience if I do say so myself)!
That's the heart of today's episode wrapped up in a sentence. Going into 2025, I hope we can all find the space to be a bit selfish.
I've been thinking a lot about how I can toggle back and forth between fixer mode and victim mode. In 2025, I want to take a playful approach to being my own parent, ritualizing everything I do so that it's more fun and more beautiful to me, and getting to know myself intentionally.
It doesn't have to all be intense goal setting in the New Year. It can be a process of slowmaxxing into the version of you that knows what you need and stops asking permission. We're talking about self-expression, self-exploration and devotion to the self today.
