"That One's Yours Now"
For a long time, being useful was how you stayed in the room. But what happens when you're not the one holding things together anymore — when someone just looks at you, and there's nothing to fix, nothing to do with your hands? This episode is about the specific difficulty of being witnessed instead of needed: the fear underneath it, the old competence that quietly turns into its opposite, and what it means when someone stops doing the work for you so you can find out you were always capable of it yourself. Told through a story about a fox, a lantern, and a young kit striking flint for the first time — and a heron who doesn't ask a single question. Learn more at steadyselfschool.com
