In this episode, we explore the power of imperfection.
From fictional characters who’ve survived trauma, addiction, grief, and self-sabotage, to real-life reflections on what it means to show up anyway—this is a tribute to the flawed, the functional, and the quietly heroic.
✅ Why competence is its own kind of courage
✅ How storytelling helps us reframe resilience
✅ The link between emotional wounds and meaningful work
✅ What it means to keep trying—even when you’re tired, angry, or scared
✅ Why being “not broken” doesn’t mean being whole
This one’s personal. And whether you’re someone who’s been through it—or someone who just feels like you’re barely holding it together—I hope this episode reminds you:
You still count. You’re still here. And that matters.
