Hidden Brain · Do You Feel Loved? · 20 Apr 2026 podcast

And that's what's going on in most of the world.

Like we're showing just like a little tip of ourselves to one another, just kind of maybe the shiny parts, maybe the positive qualities, right?

Most of us, like it's kind of the iceberg, right?

It's under the water.

We're not really showing to each other.

And then the idea is that, again, we're sitting on the seesaw.

And then when I show genuine curiosity and interest in you, and I ask you a question, what has been on your mind lately?

And I show warmth and acceptance, you feel a sense of warmth and trust and safety.

And it's as though I'm pressing down on the seesaw saying,

And it lifts you up a little bit.

It lifts you up a little bit.

So you're able to show a little bit more of yourself to me, right?

You're able to reveal a little bit more of your inner self, a little more of your full self, maybe some vulnerabilities.

And then as you do that, as you talk about maybe your childhood and how difficult it was, I listen really well to you.

I'm really listening.

I'm asking questions.

And that makes you even more, you know, feeling even more safe and trusting and even more comfortable listening

Sort of lifting more of yourself out of the water.

And then reciprocation happens, right?

And then you ideally then reciprocate and then show interest and curiosity in myself and lift me out of the water.
