Do you ever feel that your authentic emotions are buried beneath the weight of societal expectations and politeness? That's the question we grapple with in our latest episode. We offer a deep-dive into the challenging art of expressing our genuine feelings, particularly when confronted with the simple yet complex question of how we are. We don't just skim the surface here - we delve into the dense matrix of decisions involved in formulating those responses, and how they can either draw us towards or push us away from our true selves.
Grief is an emotion that's often masked in our society. But we're not shying away from it. We share our personal experiences of dealing with the loss of loved ones, and how comedy can serve as an unexpected outlet for expressing our emotions. We discuss the delicate balance between maintaining strength for our family, and being honest about our feelings. We also reflect on the profound impact our parents have had on our lives, their love for their grandchildren, and how memories fluctuate when someone close passes away.
Death often invokes fear, but can it also offer insights about life? We believe so. In our exploration of death and the concept of 'memento mori,' we discuss how acknowledging our mortality can actually enrich our lives. We draw on the wisdom encapsulated in Steve Jobs' powerful quote, "Remembering that you are going to die is the best way I know to avoid the trap of thinking you have something to lose." Our goal? To encourage each other, and you, to live a life with no regrets. Join us in this poignant conversation about grief, love, loss, and authenticity.
