Description

<p>Sink first, then rise.</p><p>In this solo episode, I unpack a haunting metaphor about drowning and survival, and connect it to how we experience emotional rock bottom.</p><p>With insight from Kierkegaard, Nietzsche, and DBT, we explore how sometimes — the fall is the path.</p><p>This isn’t about glorifying suffering. It’s about recognizing that when everything falls away, we get to decide what truly matters.</p><p>⚠️ Includes a note on addiction and the myth of ‘needing’ rock bottom to change.</p>
