In this episode, we get real with Thor Aarsnad, a Viking who said “f*ck it" to high school in 2018 and jumped straight into the entrepreneurial fire. Thor's been through the grinder—from chasing clients and cash to realizing most of that hustle was bullshit disconnected from what actually matters. No spiritual platitudes here. We dive straight into the mess of what it takes to face your own shadows instead of pretending they don't exist, and why most "self-help" keeps you trapped in the same patterns with different packaging.
Thor drops all pretense as we get into the raw stuff—how society has completely warped our relationship with ourselves, his mushroom journey in Ibiza, and why building communities based on radical truth-telling is the only path forward that makes any sense. He doesn't sugarcoat the struggle of breaking free from people-pleasing and performance, or the discomfort of choosing sovereignty when everyone around you wants compliance. But through it all, Thor's core message hits like a sledgehammer: stop taking life so damn seriously and PLAY more. Not as some cute self-care practice, but as the revolutionary act that might just save us from our own self-importance.
