  • Why You Don’t Trust Yourself Anymore

    Why You Don’t Trust Yourself Anymore
    Jan 26 2026
    There was a time when decisions felt simpler. You wanted something, you chose it, and you moved on. Now, even small choices get run through reviews, opinions, frameworks, and second-guesses. This video explores why self-trust has quietly eroded, how we learned to outsource our instincts, and what it actually takes to start believing your own judgment again.

  • The Pressure To Have An Opinion About Everything

    The Pressure To Have An Opinion About Everything
    Jan 19 2026
    Everyone wants to know what you think. Not just about big things, about everything. What you believe. Where you stand. What you’re “okay with.” What you’re “not okay with.” And somehow, saying nothing has started to mean something. This video is about that pressure, why silence now feels like a statement, and what it costs us when everything demands a reaction.

  • Why Everything Feels Like An Emergency

    Why Everything Feels Like An Emergency
    Jan 12 2026
    Urgency used to mean something. A fire. A phone call in the middle of the night. Now it sounds like notifications, red dots, and emails that say “just checking in.” Nothing is actually wrong, and yet everything feels immediate. This is why urgency has become our default setting, why calm feels harder to access, and why your nervous system doesn’t know how to stand down anymore.
