Description

What are labels, really? Are they made by us, or are they something bigger than us? Do they help define who we are, or just confuse us about the truth? Should we fear them, reject them, fight them—or embrace them and make peace with them?


In this episode, I dig into what labels actually mean, how they function, and whether we truly embrace the ones we carry—or if they never really fit us at all. With thoughts from Jean-Paul Sartre, Simone de Beauvoir, and even the ever-confusing Hegel, I ask: is life simple enough for labels to be useful, or do they only hold us back?


Oh, and I also talk about being a potato… (trigger warning for you Irish out there).
