Proof Of Life: Jennifer Pastiloff On Silencing Your Inner Critic, Transforming Childhood Trauma, & The Radical Power Of Self-Acceptance

Hey everybody, very quick ask. We are running an audience survey and I'd love for you to take a moment to check it out at richroll.com slash survey. Why are we doing this? Well, first and foremost, we really want to know you better. And the more we know who you are and what interests you most, the better that we can align the show with what matters most to you.

the kinds of guests, conversations, and themes that you find most meaningful. Second, as you know, the show would not be possible without the amazing brand partnerships that support it, which of course means ad breaks, but I really want to make the experience the best it can be, better, more relevant, and frankly, less intrusive. And to do that, to do it well, we need to understand you a little bit better. So it's super simple, just two minutes tops, but it's a small direct way you can help us keep evolving and improving the podcast.

So thanks in advance and again please visit richroll.com slash survey to fill out our audience survey. All right, let's do the show. I had a core belief, and no one could convince me otherwise that I was a bad person. I believed in every part of me that change equaled death. I lived in what I call TLOD, land of denial, where if I name it, it's gonna become real, and if I ignore it, it'll go away.
