About this listen
Stephanie joins Chris and Tracy in the studio for a conversation that starts as something simple — top 5 movies — and quietly turns into a character study.
We talk about why the stories we love are always messy, why “healing” never looks clean, and why some of the most important people in a system are the ones doing brilliant work in the background with no credit.
Stephanie also answers two of our standing questions:
• Are you a dog person or a cat person?
• …and which one are you, actually?
Then, we get into her Big Question:
“How do you take a vacation from your own personality?”
We get honest about being “the glue” for everyone else — at work, at home, with kids, with partners, with friends — and what it costs to always be the steady one. We talk armor, burnout, micro-escapes, and that weird guilt you feel when you finally let someone else carry things for a minute.
Plus: teachers, exhaustion, and why real change in schools never looks inspirational-montage easy.
New here? Welcome. Returning? Five weeks in a row. We’re calling that a streak.
