this week’s episode is all about appearance, confidence, and self-love - how we see ourselves vs how the world sees us. we talk about the noise of other people’s opinions, problems with learning to compartmentalise, and the strange difference between the neurodivergent and neurotypical world.somewhere in there we go on a food tangent, unpack our relationship to “hotness”, and end up in a surprisingly deep chat about western individualism vs eastern collectivism - because of course we do.if you’ve ever struggled to feel comfortable in your own skin or cared a little too much about how you’re perceived, this one’s for you.📩 email us your thoughts: fingerscrossedthepodcast@gmail.comFollow us:@fingerscrossedthepodcast@fakewitcherica@megstierneychapters:00:00 intro03:40 erica’s updates18:29 meg’s updates23:35 the noise of other people’s opinions36:17 on compartmentalising 41:23 neurodivergent vs neurotypical differences44:00 food tangent49:37 thoughts on hotness01:04:56 western individualist vs eastern communal cultural differences01:16:03 outro
