Our species has become expert in finding ways to engineer an avoidance of pain and suffering. We've created ways to get what we want or need the same day to avoid waiting; to digitally block people from our lives to avoid difficult conversations or embarrassment, and to distract and comfort ourselves to avoid guilt, anxiety, and confronting truths. However, in doing so, we get further from the best version of ourselves. Further still from knowing who we are now. And what better way to explain that struggle than with the story of a butterfly, as told to me by a late friend, which I really hope is true. Please do send in your questions or thoughts on how we become the best version of ourselves in a message to me on instagram @thatjezrose and while you're here, please like and follow the podcast to help others find it. If you're enjoying it, why not leave a little review? Thank you for listening, and enjoy! Written and Produced by Jez Rose Edited by Nick Jones and Jacob Batten
