In this episode, we explore how the environments we grow up in shape our emotional lives and our sense of what’s possible.

We talk about growing up in the U.S. and the UK, and how culture, language, and social norms influence our worldviews, often in ways we don’t fully see until we leave.

We reflect on emotional repression vs. openness, the weight of shame, and the ways each environment invites or inhibits vulnerability.

This is a conversation about identity, culture, and what happens when you finally have enough space to ask who you really are.
