  • Summary

  • In this episode we’re going to talk about human need, the fear of being perceived as needy, and how this fear informs the messy, often manipulative economy in our exchange of interpersonal resources. We’re going to ask and answer a question that I think looms large for all of us in our own way, that question is- what’s the difference between having needs…and being needy?

    I’m going to unpack this within the context of my own experience in trying to find the courage to ask for support- with naked vulnerability- in a time of need. In this episode we’ll also crack the door to the larger idea of how the exchange of resources- perhaps the most vital interpersonal dynamic defining the human experience- both informs and is informed by the diseased state of our fiscal economy.
