  • Luke Burgis: Mimetic Desire, Fulfillment, and the Hidden Forces That Shape What We Want
    Mar 3 2026
    Author and entrepreneur Luke Burgis joins us to explore the invisible architecture of human desire — and how understanding it can radically change our choices, ambitions, and sense of self. Drawing on his book *Wanting* and the mimetic theory of René Girard, Burgis unpacks how most of what we "want" is shaped not by independent reasoning, but by models — people we unconsciously imitate.From adolescent identity formation to startup culture, self-improvement traps, and curated social media personas, Burgis reveals how easily our values can be hijacked. He discusses the destructive loop of rivalrous desire, the myth of the autonomous goal-setter, and how most of us never pause to ask *why* we want what we want. The conversation also dives into the difference between thin vs. thick desires, how to build a life rooted in fulfillment rather than status, and the importance of discovering what only *you* can do. For anyone seeking clarity in a noisy, comparison-driven world, this episode is a wake-up call — and a blueprint for reclaiming your inner compass.

  • Laura Owens: Surviving Domestic Violence, Reclaiming Self-Worth, and Letting the Past Inform Without Defining
    Mar 2 2026
    Laura Owens, broadcaster and domestic violence survivor, shares her journey from an abusive relationship to reclaiming her voice and sense of self. Growing up in a family dedicated to broadcasting and storytelling, she learned the power of narrative—but nothing prepared her for how deeply trauma would challenge her ability to trust and be vulnerable. Laura explains why going to the police felt like a betrayal that led nowhere, why victims face a coat of shame they shouldn't have to wear, and how emotional abuse can be more damaging than physical violence. She explores the difference between letting your past inform your future versus letting it define you, why self-worth recovery is a daily struggle, and how gratitude journaling and surrounding yourself with trustworthy people become part of healing. This conversation challenges the victim-blaming question of why didn't she leave and reframes survival as strength, not weakness.

  • Kristin Neff: The Science and Practice of Self-Compassion
    Feb 27 2026
    Kristin Neff, pioneering researcher and author of *Self-Compassion*, shares a groundbreaking case for why treating ourselves with kindness isn’t indulgent — it’s essential. Drawing on decades of academic research and personal reflection, Neff outlines how self-compassion transforms mental health, resilience, motivation, and even our relationship to ambition.The conversation spans parenting, education, culture, and the myth of the “perfect” self. Neff breaks down the differences between self-esteem and self-compassion, explores how shame and criticism undermine growth, and reveals how to rewire self-talk using neuroscience and contemplative practice. Her concept of self-worth isn’t built on achievement or performance — it’s rooted in humanity, connection, and presence.From emotional resilience and rumination to social comparison and cultural programming, this episode is a masterclass in learning to care for yourself — not as a reward for success, but as a prerequisite for thriving.
