How to Live with Kare

You've started the same thing a dozen times and quit a dozen times, so by now you've decided the problem is you: you're lazy, you have no discipline. But what if it's not a discipline problem at all — it's a bar problem? This episode I get into why we set goals we have no real shot at keeping, how the ego is quietly running the whole thing, and what actually changes when you lower the bar instead of raising the stakes.

We build the ego young, as armor against a world that didn't feel safe, and then we forget we're still wearing it into rooms that were never dangerous. In the first episode, I get into where that armor comes from, how it gets passed down through a family, and why the thing protecting you is so often the same thing hurting the people you love. This is the foundation for everything this show is about. 

Welcome to How to Live with Kare — a podcast about ego, self-awareness, and the slow, honest work of actually growing. Each week we dig into the stories we tell ourselves and why we tell them. First three episodes drop June 3rd.
