Episode 34: The Myth of Becoming

I'll just become a little more...

A little wiser. A little calmer. A little more successful. A little more healed. A little more disciplined. A little more... whatever it is we think we're missing this week.

It's an exhausting way to live.

Most of us have inherited the idea that life is a long journey of becoming; that we begin somehow incomplete and spend the rest of our lives trying to earn our way back to enoughness. We rarely stop to question the premise. We just keep climbing the next mountain, collecting the next qualification, chasing the next version of ourselves, hoping that one will finally feel like home.

In this episode, Bello and I unpack why Way of the Heart starts from a completely different place. Not with deficiency, but with wholeness. Because perhaps the point of life isn't becoming someone else.

Perhaps it's remembering who you were before you forgot.

It's a strange thought.

And, if we're right, a deeply liberating one.
