Manage episode 498218214 series 3476560
We all long to be known, loved, and accepted but sometimes, without even realizing it, we’re the ones putting up walls. In this episode, I'll unpack the subtle and not-so-subtle barriers that keep us from true belonging. From internal struggles like caring too much about what others think, to modern challenges like social media’s fake connections, to the deep issue of not knowing ourselves well enough to share our real story. These obstacles matter.
You’ll discover:
The internal barriers that quietly sabotage connection.
The modern cultural forces that make real belonging harder than ever.
Why self-knowledge is a prerequisite to being known by others.
Practical ways to start dismantling these walls so you can create the connection you crave.
If you’ve ever felt like you were standing in a crowded room yet still completely unknown, this episode will help you see what’s in the way—and what you can do about it.
