About this listen
Do our high self-expectations paralyze our progress?
In this raw and introspective episode, Tom opens up about his "sobriety anxiety"—a cycle of fear, guilt, and perfectionism that causes him to jump in and out of creative projects like editing videos for "Harris is the Hook." Joined by friends Toliy, Eldar, and Mike, the group dissects Tom's struggles with accountability, past traumas, and delusional thinking, emphasizing the need for humility, mentorship, and actionable steps over endless self-sabotage. Through candid debates, humor, and tough love, they explore how to turn vague desires into real progress while questioning whether Tom's attachment to artistic ideals is helping or hindering his happiness.
