In this Pep Talk with Sam, we're talking about how to actually process your year—without getting swept up in what everyone else says you should feel.
In this pep talk, Sam covers:
* How collective stress impacts each of us differently (and why groupthink makes us assume we all experienced the same thing)
* Permission to admit: some things that devastated others didn't impact you the same way
* Why it's humanly impossible to appropriately process the onslaught of information we get every day
* The obsession with making your year either "all good" or "all bad"
* How to sit in complexity: multiple realities exist at the same time
* Why you can't stay in one emotional state constantly (even if you want to)
* The questions to ask yourself: What went well? What surprised you? What challenged you specifically—not what challenged everyone else?
This is a Pep Talk with Sam—a shorter solo episode to help you wind down the year with nuance, not pressure.
