Episode Details

Are you addicted to certainty? 

In this episode of Cacao Conversations, Julietta Wenzel and Dorice explore why we cling to being right — and what that attachment is doing to our nervous system, our relationships, and our growth. 

We say we want truth. 

But what we often want is certainty. And certainty feels safe. 

But here’s the deeper question: Is certainty even real? 

In this conversation, we unpack: 

• Why humans are wired to seek certainty 

• How identity gets fused with beliefs 

• What happens in the body when our opinions are challenged 

• The nervous system’s role in defending “being right” 

• Why curiosity creates expansion, flexibility, and connection 

In a world obsessed with being right, choosing curiosity is powerful. When we loosen our grip on certainty, we create space for growth, emotional regulation, and deeper connection. 

If you’ve ever felt defensive, triggered, or unsettled when someone disagrees with you — this episode is for you.
