Episode 1: Why We Go Deeper


We’re often taught to understand ourselves in isolation — as if our struggles, patterns, and behaviors appeared out of nowhere.


But history doesn’t end when a war does.

It doesn’t disappear when laws change.

It filters — quietly — through families, parenting styles, nervous systems, and what we come to believe is “normal.”


In this first episode of Root Cause, I share what led me down the question “Why am I the way I am?” — and how that search quickly expanded beyond psychology into biology, trauma research, neuroscience, history, and systems thinking.


This podcast isn’t about quick fixes or surface-level explanations.

It’s about understanding origins — personal and collective — so the patterns we live with finally make sense in context.


Each week, we’ll explore one thread beneath the surface to better understand how we became who we are — and why so many of our struggles are not personal failures, but adaptations.


New episodes drop Wednesdays at 7 PM ET.
