E108: FROZEN WATER: THE IDENTITY PARADOX

Our whole lives we've been told two competing messages: be unique, but also fit in; be original, but make sure you're accepted. So which is it? In this episode, we unpack the tension at the heart of identity—the paradox of being completely one of one while still being made of the same "frozen water" as everyone else.

If these concepts and ideas have inspired you to begin your journey toward becoming one of one, we highly encourage you to pre-order a hardcover copy of Adrian Crawford's Magnum Opus: The Art of Becoming One of One.
