Be What You Seem | The Freedom of Being Yourself
There is something freeing about not having to remember who you pretended to be yesterday. This episode explores the exhausting work of managing different versions of ourselves, and why authenticity does not require blurting out every thought or telling everyone everything. Through stories from work and everyday relationships, we look at the difference between honesty and oversharing, between adapting to a situation and abandoning your identity, and how to become a better version of yourself instead of a copy of someone else.

• The freedom of being one person
