We all tell ourselves stories — about who we are, what we do, and why. These narratives give meaning to our experiences but can also quietly limit us. In this episode, Dorcas explores the life stories we craft to protect ourselves and make sense of our world. What happens when the story that once served us starts holding us back? Using her own narrative, “I’m busy,” Dorcas reflects on how certain self-stories become defense mechanisms, shaping how we connect, love, and live.
