  • Dualistic Unity Raw Episode 190 (June 20th, 2024) | Performance Anxiety and the Fiction of Self

    In this episode, we delve into the most uncommon and original topics that challenge our everyday perceptions and experiences. We explore the idea of performing without judgment, the absurdity of striving to be good at life, and the often unnoticed ways we categorize ourselves.
