It's been one full year since I've launched this pod!
I still get the question of "what made you want to start a podcast in the first place?" so I thought it would be fun to take it back to my "why" and also go into the greater concept of origin stories.
Did you know that research says that who you are before the age of 5 is likely your "truest self"? Unless you had something very traumatic impact you within that time frame, you were typically the most authentic, raw, and real version of your personality.
Before socialization, peer pressure, outside influences, and other environmental factors you were blissfully un-self aware and thus free to just BE.
So, how do we in adulthood look over our shoulder at our past self and appreciate that little version of us, but also take forward some of the necessary lessons life taught us since then?
I bring in the person who has known me for over 20 years and has seen the evolution of many versions of me in that time frame - my husband & best friend Aaron Weits.
Together we talk a bit about how childhood interests and personalities can be a window into what brings us even true peace & joy in adulthood.
