Episode Details

In this episode, Carl shares a slightly uncomfortable but honest reflection about giving yourself permission to like what you actually like—and to stop pretending otherwise. After declining an invitation to a high-profile economic talk, he explores how often we go along with things simply because we think we’re supposed to, from market forecasts to popular books to even skiing. Through a few relatable stories, Carl invites you to notice where you might be following expectations instead of your own interests—and what it might look like to quietly, kindly choose your own path instead.
