What if the hero you’ve been waiting for… is you?

In this potent and timely episode of How to Stay Human, Tori and Kyle explore the real meaning of heroism—not as a fantasy, but as a fully embodied expression of who you are, what you value, and how you choose to show up in a chaotic, rapidly changing world.

This is a soul-first, truth-telling conversation about inner conflict, spiritual leadership, aligned action, and what it looks like to become the kind of human the future needs.

We’re not just facing external crises. We’re reckoning with the dissonance between who we are and who we pretend to be. And that’s exactly where the call to courage begins.
