Self-Awareness Is Making You Miserable

We’re more self-aware than ever… so why do we still feel anxious, overwhelmed, and stuck?In this episode, we unpack the darker side of self-awareness, therapy culture, and constant self-improvement. From TikTok diagnoses and overused therapy language to “main character energy” and the pressure to always be healing, we explore how overanalyzing ourselves might actually be hurting our mental health.We’re talking about the difference between awareness and change, why everything feels pathologized online, and how modern self-help culture may be making people more self-critical instead of more at peace.
