Most people think professionalism is about fitting in, but what if it’s actually the reason we feel disconnected from ourselves? This podcast explores the tension between who we are and who we feel pressured to be at work, in relationships, and in everyday life.

Through candid conversations, we unpack how different environments shape our behavior, how limiting beliefs form, and what it looks like to actually understand yourself beyond the roles you play.

After being diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, he tried both Western and holistic medicine to get better. During a holistic treatment, he realized he was not being his most authentic self and experienced an ego death. Now, instead of trying to fit into boxes, he’s being unapologetically himself.
