Episode 8 | Who Asked You To Save Me?

Imagine that someone came here, to this little podcast of mine, just to convert me, correct me, or tell me what I should be doing with my life. I mean, seriously, just let yourself imagine what that might look like.

 

Seriously, between you and I, I would gently (I would), tell that “you're in the wrong place.”

And I mean that in the most direct, non-hostile, loving way possible.

 

This episode is about what happens when you stop letting the world define happiness for you. 

 

The books didn't do it. 

 

The relationships didn't do it. 

 

The alcohol damn sure as shit didn't do it. 

 

Not enough of any of it existed to shut up the voice inside asking what happiness actually means to me. For me. Not for you, not for my parents, not for whatever the American Dream is selling this week.

 

I had to define it myself. And once I did, my cup started running the fuck over.

 

I also talk about all caps messages, unsolicited religious conversions, and why I can have a Guinness Extra Stout and walk away from it — which I genuinely didn't think was ever going to be possible.
