Are You Lying to Yourself About What You Really Want?

What do you do when you already know the answer but don't want to admit it to yourself? In this episode of The Nebulum Podcast, Zale and Grant explore the tension between what we know we want and what we allow ourselves to pursue. They discuss recognizing when you truly resonate with your path, the role of fear in stifling our inner signals, and the bravery required to make difficult decisions that disrupt stability.
If you've ever felt torn between comfort and calling, this conversation will meet you where you are.
