About this episode

Jennifer Pastiloff is a bestselling author and creator of the viral "On Being Human" movement. This conversation explores her journey from childhood trauma to radical self-acceptance, her concept of silencing the "inner asshole," and why your want is enough to change everything. We discuss her father's death at eight, living in "the land of fine," and the revolutionary idea that you are your proof of life. She demonstrates how our deepest wounds become our greatest superpowers for connection. Jennifer is a rare gem. This exchange is deeply nourishing. Enjoy!
