Episode notes
In this episode of “Chasing My Hero,” I open my heart like never before.
I share my story with love—what I believed, what hurt me, what healed me, and what I still dream of. From childhood ideals shaped by romantic comedies, to the heartbreak of expectations unmet, to powerful letters like Richard Feynman’s that made me question it all.
This is about longing and patience, about the paradox of wanting love without losing yourself. About what truly matters in a partner. About the journal entry I never thought I’d share.
But mostly… this is about hope.
