S01 E34 Judgement

We judge others.We fear being judged.And often, we harshly judge ourselves.
But what if judgement isn’t just about right or wrong? What if it’s a reflection of our own fears, conditioning, and pain?
In this episode, we’ll explore how judgement shows up in our lives, how it separates us from others and from ourselves and how we can shift from criticism to curiosity.
Let’s go deeper. Let’s get honest.
