Data Collection Will Help

December 08, 2025 • Season 13 • Episode 169

Buffy begins with a story about an ordinary moment of tuning into a true crime podcast opened up a wider inquiry: What am I consuming, and why?

How does what you are taking in—media, food, relationships, stories, habits—shape your inner landscape? In this episode, Buffy invites us into the practice of data collection as a way to bring us home to ourselves.

This is an episode for anyone curious about paying deeper attention to their own life, one data point at a time.
