Let's Talk About It: Whatever "It" Is
Welcome to "Let’s Talk About It", where we talk about the “its” that no one wants to talk about. Have you ever been in a situation where you have a certain set of thoughts, feelings, or questions but you think you are the only one? That can be an isolating place to be. But oh what joy when someone comes along and says something that shows they are in a similar headspace. Suddenly, you feel a little less lonely. Join hosts Paula and Olejuru as they hold space for these kinds of conversations.

Episode 3
In this week’s episode, Olejuru and Paula reflect on a key question proposed by our guest from Episode 2: “If everything you have is taken away, so to speak, then who are you as an individual?"
Too often, identity seems to be based upon the things we are doing and what we have. When it feels like we are not doing enough compared to others, we can feel a sense of loss or inadequacy. How, then, do we make sure our identity does not become rooted in the approval of other people? What happens when we we evaluate the labels we accept for ourselves and freely step into the space outside of that box?
Enjoy this special episode on identity as we conclude our Rise and Grind series!
