"Telling your story is the secret to survival." - Rodney.
Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie once spoke about the danger of a single story, but what about the danger of an untold story? Rodney makes the case that knowing and telling your story is an underrated survival tactic. He explores a variety of angles to show the true power of our personal stories and history.
Rodney also tells the origin story behind his 'main character' syndrome, while threading the needle of his past experiences and present personality. This episode is about the story we tell ourselves about ourselves, the story we choose to tell others, and how it can make or break us.
