EPISODE OVERVIEW
In this episode, Joel and Antonia examine the often overlooked costs of personal development. They explore why growth isn't always rewarded, what we have to sacrifice as we evolve, and how maturity can sometimes leave us feeling more isolated than empowered. Through stories, Jungian insights, and real-life reflections, they unpack the emotional, social, and motivational shifts that come with long-term growth and what it truly asks of us.
