A few days ago, I had a small accident that forced me to slow down in a way I didn’t choose. Nothing dramatic, and still enough to interrupt my rhythm. It made me confront something deeper than mobility or inconvenience. It made me ask who I am when I can’t be productive, strong, efficient, or visibly capable.

This episode explores identity beyond output. It reflects on what surfaces when movement is limited, when help is needed, and when performance is stripped away. It’s about the tenderness that appears when we stop proving ourselves.

If you’ve ever tied your worth to how much you can do, this one may feel close to home.
