About this listen

We've been taught to believe that love, validation, motivation, and even calm come from outside of us. A text. A compliment. A relationship. A win.

Thats's frosting.

In this episode, we break down the cake analogy-why you have to be fully baked on your own before anything external can actually enhance your life-and how your brain chemistry explains exactly why chasing frosting never satisfies.

We dive into he science behind dopamine and oxytocin, how they work differently in the body. And why quick hits of pleasure, praise, or attention feel good in the moment but leave you craving more...while slower, self-resourced practices actually create safety. stability, and connection.

You are not missing anything.

You are the cake!
