<p>What if your hardest emotional challenges could be solved by talking to a stranger? A person who has gone through the exact same situation or something very similar. That’s the premise of Proxy, a podcast that investigates your niche emotional conundrums with host Yowei Shaw. In this episode, Yowei and Chris talk about the power of knowing you’re not the only person going through something, however specific. Whether it’s losing your job, a friend breakup, or an alternate version of your life that you can’t let go of, Yowei has a method to make it all make more sense.</p><br><p><strong>Featured guest</strong></p><ul><li>Follow Yowei Shaw on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/yoweishaw/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.patreon.com/cw/ProxyPodcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Patreon</a>, and at <a href="https://www.yoweishaw.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">yoweishaw.com/</a></li><li>Listen to <a href="https://pod.link/1746433334" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Proxy</a> with Yowei Shaw</li></ul><p><br></p><p><strong>Connect with the team</strong></p><ul><li>Follow Chris on <a href="https://www.instagram.com/chrisiduffy/?hl=en" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a> and at <a href="https://chrisduffycomedy.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">chrisduffycomedy.com</a></li><li>Buy Chris’ book, <a href="https://t.ted.com/ZGuYfcL" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Humor Me</a>&nbsp;</li><li>Watch How to Be a Better Human videos on YouTube at <a href="https://www.youtube.com/TEDAudioCollective" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TEDAudioCollective</a></li><li>Follow TED on <a href="https://x.com/TEDTalks" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">X</a>, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/ted" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Instagram</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/TED" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Facebook</a>, <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/company/ted-conferences/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">LinkedIn</a>, and <a href="https://www.tiktok.com/@tedtoks" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">TikTok</a></li></ul><p>For the full text transcript, visit <a href="https://go.ted.com/BHTranscripts" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">go.ted.com/BHTranscripts</a></p><br><p><em>Learn more about our flagship conference happening this April at&nbsp;</em><a href="https://attend.ted.com/podcast" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank"><em>attend.ted.com/podcast</em></a></p><hr><p style='color:grey; font-size:0.75em;'> Hosted on Acast.
