In a world flooded with information, curated images, and competing voices, it’s easy to lose track of what’s real. How do you know what to trust—online, in conversation, or even within yourself?

This episode dives into the growing challenge of discernment in both our personal and professional lives. From algorithm-fed narratives to the quiet undercurrents of self-doubt, we explore how distortion—both external and internal—can cloud your clarity.

Through personal stories, metaphors, and practical tools, we’ll explore:

  • How to recognize when something feels “off,” even if it looks fine on the surface
  • How external and internal distortion might be showing up
  • Three practical tools to strengthen discernment: triangulating data, listening with your whole self, and practicing stillness

Whether you’re making leadership decisions, navigating relationships, or simply trying to stay grounded in the noise, this episode offers calm, thoughtful guidance to help you come home to yourself—and move through the world with more clarity, confidence, and wisdom.
