About this listen

In this bold and thought-provoking episode titled “Does Truth Have to Hurt?”, we explore why people often equate truth with pain—and whether that belief is distorting the way we grow, connect, and hold one another accountable. Through sharp insight and cultural commentary, the episode challenges the idea that truth must arrive as a weapon. Instead, we examine how honesty can be a tool for elevation rather than humiliation, empowerment rather than embarrassment. Why do we instinctively brace ourselves when someone says, “Can I be honest with you?” And why do we sometimes reject affirming truths while embracing only the ones that wound? This conversation unpacks the psychology of ego, insecurity, imposter syndrome, and the fear of our own potential, revealing that sometimes the pain isn’t the truth itself—it’s our resistance to it.
