In this episode, Edda gets real about something most people quietly wrestle with: how hard it is to stay true to yourself when life keeps pulling you in every direction but your own. She explores the idea that being yourself isn’t a revelation or a personality type — it’s a series of choices. Small ones. Daily ones. The kind that slowly build (or erode) the person you become.

Edda talks about how people often know who they are, but they don’t always choose it — especially when overthinking takes over. She brings in a line from The Tao of Pooh that captures this perfectly:

“The surest way to become Tense, Awkward, and Confused is to develop a mind that tries too hard — one that thinks too much.”
Because sometimes the real barrier to authenticity isn’t confusion — it’s mental noise.

She also shares her love of The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, the Ben Stiller film that shows what happens when someone stops imagining the life they want and starts choosing it. Walter’s transformation doesn’t come from a grand epiphany; it comes from a single decision that leads to another, and another, until he becomes someone he recognizes.

And woven through all of this is Edda’s perspective on faith. Not religious dogma, but the kind of faith that lives inside choice.For Edda, faith is what allows you to choose before you feel ready.Choice is what gives faith a place to land.Together, they build a life that feels like your own.

This episode is Edda’s invitation to look at the choices that define you, the moments where you abandon yourself, and the moments where you return. Staying true to yourself isn’t a feeling. It isn’t a revelation. It’s a practice — one choice at a time.
