Today’s episode is about friendship - the real kind - and why so many of us feel lonely even when we’re surrounded by people. Pops Staples sets the tone, Carl Jung kicks the door open, and a Taoist story brings it home.

We talk about self-friendship, treating yourself with the compassion you’d show your closest friend, and learning not to abandon yourself when things get loud in your head.

Short, honest, and (hopefully) grounding.

If you need a moment of connection… have a listen.
