🎙️ Do You Have Eight Minutes?
In today’s powerful and deeply human episode, we explore a simple yet transformative idea: eight minutes of connection can change everything.
Inspired by a moving story shared by Simon Sinek, this episode dives into the way we often reach out for help without really saying we need it, sending light, casual messages when our hearts are quietly breaking. We touch on loneliness, emotional safety, the myth of self-sufficiency, and the courage it takes to say, “I’m not okay.”
Through reflection, gentle coaching, and practical guidance, this episode invites you to create your own “8-Minute List” the people you can reach out to when life feels heavy and shows you how to build more authentic, supportive, and emotionally connected relationships.
