  • Embracing Authenticity and Fear

    Welcome to the first ever episode of Dysfunctional.


    In this episode I wanted to introduce you to exactly how this podcast is going to work. Me going off on different tangents with no plan whatsoever.

    Welcome to Dysfunctional: Embracing Authenticity and Fear


    In the inaugural episode of 'Dysfunctional,' Josh Connolly shares his journey into podcasting, emphasizing authenticity and embracing fear. He discusses his approach to balancing overthinking with action, the performance aspect of social media, and his desire for longer-form content to express himself more fully. Josh delves into his critiques of the wellness industry, his personal battles with validation, and his quest for living in the moment. He explains the philosophy behind his practices, including his experiences with addiction and public speaking, and opens up about his complex relationship with spirituality and social media. This first episode sets the tone for a raw, unfiltered exploration of Josh's mind, promising weekly insights and authentic conversations.
