Ep. 30 Do We Actually Know Ourselves?

How sure are you that you actually know yourself? This week: the real research on why self-awareness is a lot rarer, and a lot more "in progress," than it feels like from the inside.

Overthinkers — try the opening exercise from this episode in the comments if you're brave: describe yourself in three or four words. Then ask someone who's known you a long time to do the same, separately, and see how much overlap there actually is. Genuinely curious how many of you get a surprise.

New episodes every week!
