Summary
We hesitate to tell our stories for a thousand reasons. It’s vulnerable, for starters, and we hate the feeling of giving others power over us.
We decide ahead of time that our story isn’t that interesting, that nobody else would care besides us, and that our situation is 100% unique to our experience.

Today’s episode explores this topic and encourages you to take a single step to unpack the miracle that is your personal story.

| 0:47.4 | your disposal to communicate with other people. And also why and how we tend to avoid this and tiptoe around it and push it away and pretend |
| 0:58.1 | like that's not the case. This is almost, maybe it is a universal human experience. This concept of |
| 1:05.7 | knowing somehow intuitively deep down that our personal stories, what's going on in our life and the way |
