The Inner Self

Long time listener, first time question submitter. I’m wondering how you both navigate appropriately merging your true inner self with the world around you, publicly and in relationships (re: dating men). I just turned 30 and I’m starting to feel the weight of interacting with people who don’t seem to…“get it”. Sometimes it can feel like we must mute ourselves in order to calibrate to normalcy and dull connection. P**g (redacted in solidarity of your new ventures) was one of my favorite podcasts because both of your brains have made me say, “finally! These are the thoughts we must be sharing in order to live!” Anyways, how can you stay true to your inner self while also accepting that the world is full of nonsense that doesn’t scratch the itch?

How do you get aligned with your North Star?

Morning pep talk in the mirror? Power poses? Meditation on affirmations? Journaling/morning pages? How do you get up, hype yourself up, and show up, especially when it feels hard?
