About this episode

This episode explores the concept of showing love through actions and the implications of feeling worthy only when being useful.

"This is a special series I'm running called The Correction. It lives separately from TMAO but I wanted to bring it here first. Here's Episode 03." Episode 03 — The Correction with G Money Ms Rose showed love by doing things. I watched that. I learned it. I became it. My grandmother didn't talk about love in the abstract. She showed it — food on the table, shoes on your feet, a roof that didn't move. Ms Rose's love was a verb, not a noun. And she was the most powerful person I have ever known. So I became her. The utility. The constant showing up. The need to be useful to earn my place. But somewhere in this episode I ask a question I can't stop sitting with — is there a difference between showing love through doing, and only feeling worthy when you're doing something? Same behaviour. Very different root. That's Entry 03 of The Correction. The Correction is a podcast about unlearning the habit of leading with utility — and learning to just be present instead. New episodes every Monday and Thursday.
