I love the raw, honest and vulnerable story you shared. We all have our blind spots. However, consumerism is the one form we often turn to, in order to fill the holes we feel insides, because we’ve been taught so.

If I may add, it seems that you are, however, shielding yourself through the hard science. While I might not be part of your core audience, I think it makes your message less approachable, more archaic.

Wait, I'm officially speechless 😭🙌🏽. I can't believe the creator I value the most around here left such an incredibly meaningful comment to a piece I wrote "aus der Hüfte heraus" as they say (iykyk).

Sterling, this is why I appreciate your perspective so much. You don't just read - you truly see the foundation. Thank you for reflecting this back with such beautiful clarity and thank you for being here.
