Villain Origin Story

from OCTD · host Tylr Coffelt

No one wakes up thinking they’re the villain — but statistically? You’re absolutely the bad guy in someone else’s story. And honestly? I’m fine with that.This isn’t about being cruel or careless. It’s about choosing to be the hero in your own life instead of setting yourself on fire to keep everyone else warm. I've never been one to twist myself into something more “palatable” just to avoid disappointing people, and I want to help you be like that too!In this episode, we’re breaking up with people-pleasing and accepting the uncomfortable truth: you can’t make everyone happy — and trying to is the fastest way to abandon yourself. Let’s get into it.
