In the very first episode of Just Between Us…, João (me, hi) opens up about a moment in therapy that changed everything: realizing he uses a smile or a joke to soften the truth, even when the truth actually hurts. This episode is a slow escape from time — an intimate, story-first reflection on emotional honesty, the pressure to stay positive, and the quiet bravery of saying what’s really there without performing lightness. João shares personal stories, gentle insights, and three small practices to help you hold your own feelings with more softness this week.
If you’ve ever laughed through pain, stayed “strong” when you were tired, or avoided silence because it felt too honest… this one’s for you.
