How Do We Stay Grounded When Everything and Nothing Changes?

In this episode, we confront the idea that “everything is changing while nothing is changing,” hoping to gain a new perspective on it as we navigate life’s transitions. We introduce and discuss a thread by writing coach, Yetunde Omobolanle (@divayetty), to acknowledge our frustrations with the realities we contend with daily: maintaining a personal brand while navigating a struggling economy, an imbalanced workforce, an unaffordable housing market, and a broken dating scene. Everything may not be as it seems, and so we’re ultimately asking, “How do we stay grounded when everything and nothing changes?” After breaking those concepts down, we transition into our “Evolving and Unbothered” segment, where we each rant on a subject for one minute and then provide additional context on the matter, anticipating that we might rise above it one day, but not today! ••• PLEASE COMMENT DOWN BELOW your take on the question, “How do we stay grounded when everything and nothing changes?” Or share your Evolving and Unbothered moments. ••• You can watch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/VfXBog5DqLI ••• FOLLOW US ON: IG: https://www.instagram.com/theqpol/ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@theqpol216

Do We Decide Who We Are or Are We Simply Uncovering the Truth?

In this episode, we explore the idea of “becoming.” We discuss how we are shaped by experience against nature, and whether we honor the perceptions that we and others have about us, or honor our “essence.” We consider the tensions of acceptance vs. change and performance vs. authenticity, ultimately asking, “Do we decide who we are or are we simply uncovering the truth?” We transition into a segment we’re calling “Can’t Relate/Relate,” where we react to submitted responses to our questions of the day (QOTD), and then wrap up with our key takeaways from today’s topic. ••• PLEASE COMMENT DOWN BELOW your take on the question, “Do we decide who we are or are we simply uncovering the truth?” Or share with us your responses to the questions of the day. ••• You can watch this episode on YouTube: https://youtu.be/LXkQ9Th-dMM ••• FOLLOW US ON: IG: https://www.instagram.com/theqpol/ TT: https://www.tiktok.com/@theqpol216
