In this transmission I talk about my brand new mustache.

I also dive into our deep-seeded need as humans to seek the acceptance of those around us; our parents, our teachers, our classmates, our co-workers, our neighbors, or our peers. I open up about how I spent many years trying to impress certain people in my life in order to get validation from them (so that I wouldn't feel like a complete loser).

Normally I try not to let people's opinions about me get under my skin, but this week I've had a few people criticizing certain life choices of mine and I open up about my reaction to it and how it's been a valuable lesson in seeking acceptance from others.

I also dive into fate and destiny and if they insinuate a lack of free will in our lives. I've been listening to a lot of neuroscientists this week, getting their insight into the nature of our reality, our sensory perceptions and how they may be "tricking" our brain into seeing things that aren't really there. Like for example...all of reality.

I talk about Terrance Howard and "3 Body Problem" on Netflix as well as what it's like to get lost in a character.
