About this episode

This episode explores the distinction between true desires and fleeting interests, encouraging listeners to embrace their persistent passions without feeling broken.

Sometimes I mix up true desires with interests and hyperfocus. But what about the persistent and even lifelong interests? Where do they fit in? This episode is for anyone who wants to throw their life out the window and start over when in the throes of a new interest ;) You're not broken!
