In You’re Gonna Be Great! Host M.E. Evans and a rotating cast of guests serve recommendations and commentary about the latest buzzy shows, movies, music, and trending books. Each installment is forty-five minutes where opinions are shared upfront and broader cultural or mental health themes are unpacked for the second half, like using K-pop and popular booktok fantasy novels to figure out why we are so sexually attracted to duality and vampires, or how we can learn to be more gritty and resilient through the YA series Throne of Glass.

Masks And Our Many Parts: ACOTAR, Internal Family Systems, And K-Pop
All of us behave a little bit differently at times. Are we pretending, performing, or are we made up of many different parts that we reveal when it makes the most sense socially? How weird would it be if we were the same all the time?
Sarah J. Maas in her ACOTAR books uses the term ”mask” to describe Rhysand’s shift into different personas from the feared night lord to the sweetest man on earth.
In this episode, we discuss masks, our many selves, Internal Family Systems, ACOTAR, and The Stray Kids. Like most YGBG episodes, it’s part mental health and wellness, part trending pop culture, and part storytime. Enjoy!
