It Really is THAT Deep

What happens when the version of you that people know is the version you learned was safest to lead with?

In the second episode of It Really Is THAT Deep, Prentiss explores the difference between being known and being seen, the adaptations that become identity, and what happens when our capacity changes before the people around us know how to experience that change.

This episode is an invitation to get curious about self-availability, visibility, and what it actually requires to let ourselves be experienced in relationship.
