065 | Fear and Freedom
Around a year ago, before the Trauma Hiders Club Podcast launched, I felt like I was in between two worlds. The first world was one of fear; the other world was freedom. The in-between was a clammy, sweaty, dry-mouthed, going-through-the-motion, emotionally-disconnected space—basically, my system’s happy place. I thought, at that time, that one world was an inside game, and the other an external affair. But a year and several intense and meaningful conversations with podcast guests later, I’ve learned so much about fear, freedom, and the world between them.
In this episode, I take a retrospective look at my year of hosting the Trauma Hiders Club Podcast. I describe the chaos-loving internal system I built for myself and discuss the worlds of fear and freedom. I also explain why freedom is an external—as much as it is an internal—game.
“Freedom is an inside and outside game. My way of being free is an invitation to you, the listener, to consider where you are trapped and where you are free.”
