I’ve got an incredibly thoughtful and inspiring guest joining us Hector Marcel (IG @wakeupist), President and lead teacher of Three Jewels Enlightenment Studio in New York City, a place dedicated to helping people reach their highest potential through meditation, community, and ancient wisdom applied to modern life. Today we’re diving into a topic that touches every part of our human experience: how identity is shaped in every interaction we have, and how our sense of belonging ultimately extends to the whole of humanity, not as isolated individuals, but as interconnected beings learning from one another. Through the lens of spiritual practice, Buddhist philosophy, and lived experience, Hector helps us explore the ways our identities evolve through connection, and why belonging is something deeper than any one group or place. So get comfy, grab your tea or coffee, and let’s explore with curiosity and heart.Big thanks to my amazing friend Camille El Feghali for the beautiful music you hear throughout the episode. Camille is a Lebanese-Australian multi-instrumentalist and producer based between Beirut and Melbourne, blending traditional Middle Eastern instruments and sounds with modern electronic textures. CreditsMusic Camille El Feghali  IG@camille_musician <a rel="payment" href="https://cutt.ly/wG6NSAr">Support the show</a>

<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1003771/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a> We’re kicking off a brand new season — and celebrating 5 years of Get to Know You! Five years of opening up conversations that matter, and what better way to begin this milestone season than with a deeply human question: How do we stay connected to ourselves when trauma has tried to disconnect us? In this heartfelt first episode, we explore the quiet yet powerful concept of interoception — our ability to sense and interpret the internal signals of our bodies. Trauma often shakes this connection, leaving us feeling lost within ourselves. But reconnection is possible — gentle, gradual, and transformative. This episode invites you into a reflective and compassionate space to explore what it means to return to yourself. Whether you’re healing, supporting others, or simply curious about the body-mind relationship, there’s something here for you. Thank you for 5 years of listening, growing, and sharing.

<a target="_blank" href="https://www.buzzsprout.com/1003771/fan_mail/new">Send us Fan Mail</a>In this week&apos;s episode of Get to Know You cafe, we&apos;re diving deep into the intriguing discussion from last week with Rachelle Doss, where we tackled the question: Why does being &apos;hot&apos; not cut it? We received an overwhelming response from our listeners, and today, we&apos;ll be exploring some of the most thought-provoking feedback that further enriched our conversation. Sam posed the question, &quot;What are the characteristics of a good character?&quot; Drawing from Robert Greene&apos;s insights in &quot;The Laws of Human Nature,&quot; Sam emphasized that character is the essence of a person, deeply rooted and reflected in their consistent behavior patterns. We’ll explore how finding people with a strong, adaptable, and self-aware character is far more valuable than superficial charm or charisma. Edwardo shared his thoughts on identifying narcissistic traits in individuals, referencing the expertise of Dr. Ramani, a specialist in narcissism from Los Angeles. We&apos;ll discuss the different types of narcissists—grandiose, covert, depressed, malignant, and communal—and how to recognize these traits in others. Understanding these characteristics can help us navigate relationships more effectively and avoid potential pitfalls. Jenny raised an important question about improving self-awareness. We&apos;ll delve into practical steps and strategies to help ourselves and others become more self-aware, fostering personal growth and deeper connections. Tune in as we unpack these insights and reflect on how they contribute to the broader conversation about the value of character over mere physical appearance. Whether you&apos;re catching up with last week’s episode or joining us for the first time, this discussion promises to be enlightening and engaging.
