In this episode, we dive into the complex world of identity politics, specifically exploring the question of whether we should continue supporting celebrities or public figures we like no matter what, or if it's sometimes necessary to call them out—or even walk away—when their actions or views don’t align with our values. We examine the balance between loyalty and accountability, and whether it's possible to separate the art from the artist or the public persona from the person. Is it worth holding on to that connection, or do we owe it to ourselves to stand up and make difficult decisions, even if it means letting go of someone we once admired? It's a tricky conversation that digs into how our identities shape the way we navigate our relationships with people in the public eye.

Getting back on track

In this episode, we dive into the challenge of getting back into the groove of recording the podcast after a break and how tough it can be to regain that momentum. Life happens, things get busy, and suddenly, that consistency you had built starts to slip away. We discuss the mental blocks that pop up when you're trying to start again, the pressure to pick up where you left off, and how difficult it is to get back into the rhythm once you’ve been away for a while. But we also talk about the importance of pushing through that initial resistance, setting small, manageable goals, and finding the motivation to get back on track – because consistency is key, and it’s always worth it in the end
