Hidden Brain · Why You're Smarter Than You Think · 16 Feb 2026 podcast

It feels like what we're wanting to be able to offer to each other is that experience that you're my safe harbor.

Of all the people in the world, you're the person who I most feel comfortable and safe

being my actual, authentic, vulnerable self with, because I know that when it comes right down to it, you love me and accept me just the way I am, including

I know this is a place where I get reactive.

I know this is a place where I tend to fall down.

You know, I'm doing my best out here, right?

And there was something about it that just felt like, oh, I don't really want you to go, or I would want to go with you.

I just sort of felt that kind of missing in it.
