Summary

When life as you know it crumbles—lost jobs, shaken identities, houses (literal or figurative) in rubble—what if you’re not meant to rebuild the old structure at all? In this episode of Bewildered, we're exploring our deep attachment to “putting it back how it was,” how culture teaches us to fear impermanence, and what becomes possible when we let Nature “take the wheel” to allow something entirely new to emerge. Tune in to grieve, rethink, and reimagine what the next chapter of your life could be.

Why don't I feel that I'm on purpose? Well, it turns out there are certain things you have to do to find your purpose and I broke them down into five and I made

You'll say, let's eat. And she'll go, eatie, weedy, weeaties. Like, just total random. But that's been from childhood, right? But I've started doing this thing, and I don't know what is misfiring in my brain. The other day, you sneezed. I did not. No, you did. I did. It's okay to admit it. It's okay to admit it. I did.
