It’s one of the more painful human experiences: being judged not for what we’ve done, but for what we value. This episode examines why those moments leave such a lasting mark — and why, so often, we end up doing the same to others. Listeners share stories of judgment given and received, and the consequences of not finding the right words when it mattered most. Alongside them, a provocative remedy: a way out of the cycle that strains relationships, narrows futures, and obscures purpose.

In Becoming You, the question “What should I do with my life?” sits at the heart of every conversation. This episode explores how judgment can silence that question — sometimes before we even have the chance to ask it.
