You asked and we answered. 2025 has been a wild ride.

This podcast has never been about telling you what to think. It’s about reminding you that you can think.

This episode weaves together voices from across the year — conversations about men in women’s sports, politics, health, nervous system regulation, money, wealth, propaganda, healing the body, the mind, and the soul.

On the surface, these topics might seem unrelated.

They’re not.

They’re all asking the same question: Who are we when we stop repeating what we’ve been told to believe?

This episode has themes of: Authenticity, Belief systems, intuitive awareness, self awareness, nervous system regulation, discernment, alignment & purpose, leadership, belonging and empowerment.

Most people want two things: to belong, and to be authentic.

But the moment belonging feels threatened, authenticity is the first thing we abandon.

Because to the human brain, belonging is safety.

We’ll shapeshift, silence, and shrink ourselves, not because we’re weak, but because our biology is still wired to believe that being cast out equals danger.

The work isn’t to stop wanting belonging. It’s to learn how to belong without betraying yourself.
