Ep. 126: Toxic Individualism and the Need for Community
This week, we’re talking about the myth of self-sufficiency and why community matters more than ever. From recent headlines to personal reckonings, we dig into how toxic individualism is making life harder for everyone—and what we can do about it.
Also, are we getting a divorce? Maybe. Maybe not. Either way, we’re working through it on the mic. And finally, the age-old debate: Man Flu vs. Woman Flu—who actually suffers more? (Spoiler: One of us has thoughts.)
Tune in for real talk, real laughs, and maybe even some real solutions.
