In this episode of Must I Evolve?, Andrew H. Housley explores one of the mind's most convincing invisible cages — anxiety that feels like preparation but is really just repetition. We examine how worry disguises itself as responsibility, control, and care, and why so many of us have learned to mistake it for wisdom. Drawing on a Zen parable about a man who struggles all night to free something that was never actually stuck, this episode asks a quiet but unsettling question: what if the cage isn't the problem you're wrestling with — it's the wrestling itself?
