This episode is about the rules we inherit—spoken and unspoken, cultural and familial—and how to discern whether they’re truly in service to our lives. So many of our thoughts, standards, and habits are built on default settings we didn’t consciously choose. What would it look like to pause, question, and redefine them?

Buffy asks questions like: What expectations are we unconsciously trying to meet? Which rules have we internalized without realizing it? And what could happen if we let them go?

This is an invitation to build systems of thought and ways of being that align with your true values—not just the values you were handed. It's not about throwing everything out; it's about becoming more intentional with what you keep.
