Episode Description

Today we're talking about how Perfect DOESN'T EXIST. It's literally not a thing. So why do we spend so much time chasing after it, trying to be it, to smile and fake it? Look around at the people you follow and admire. Are they perfect? No way.

They try new things, put themselves out there, and make mistakes. I GUARANTEE they don't give off that "perfect illusion". Perfect isn't a thing. If it were, it would be boring anyway. And I definitely don't like hanging out with boring people, no thanks. Let's get started. I'm so glad you're here.

Topics Discussed:

Stephen Hawkings is a pretty smart guy
We get to define our own lives
We use other people as an excuse to not get started
The mean girls don't matter
Perfect is boring anyway
