Season 2, Episode 17: Wherever You Go, There You Are
How much of what you call “who I am” is still open to change?
A good friend used to say, “Wherever you go, there you are,” when we were in high school. Back then, it was something funny we said. Thirty-plus years later, I’m fifty, raising a family, leading an organization, and wondering how many decisions I’m still making based on an old idea of myself.
“That’s how I am” often sounds like an honest explanation. Sometimes it also ends a conversation we need to keep having.
In this episode of Still Here, Still Trying, I look at the habits we’ve come to accept as permanent. Agreeing to something we already resent. Reaching for the phone when there’s finally nothing urgent to do. Explaining why we interrupted while the other person is still waiting to finish.
I’m in this conversation too. The people closest to me deserve room to tell me what they experience, even when it challenges how I see myself.
If you’ve ever heard yourself give the same explanation and wished the next conversation would go differently, this episode gives you somewhere to begin: one familiar response to practice changing.
There’s plenty about you worth keeping. You still get a say in what happens next.
