In this meandering journey through consciousness, Henrik explores the complex relationship between certainty and humility, weaving together personal stories from his acting school days with reflections on leadership, fear, and the human need for control. From his first terrifying encounter with a carousel at age 10 to conquering his fears on the "Candy Train" with his daughter years later, Henrik contemplates how we often let ourselves be buried under the "dust of convenience" – and what it takes to shake ourselves free.

The episode takes an unexpected turn as Henrik shares his thoughts on the phenomenon of "strong men" in politics and society, questioning why we're drawn to those who claim to have all the answers. Through a vivid recollection of his acting school admission experience in 1995, he illustrates how uncertainty and humility can be more powerful than false confidence.

Between discussions of exercise, muscle fibers, and running like the wind in a Gothenburg park, Henrik weaves a tapestry of thoughts about finding authentic ways to feel alive without artificial stimulants. It's a deeply personal exploration of growth, fear, and the courage to admit when we don't have all the answers.
