What if the version of yourself you’ve been protecting isn’t actually who you are?

Why is it so easy to lose ourselves in roles, expectations, and the need to be understood?

And when was the last time you sat in complete stillness and truly listened to yourself?

 

In this solo episode of A Really Good Cry, Radhi explores what it really means to be your true self—and why so many of us spend our lives identifying with roles, expectations, and versions of ourselves that were never truly ours. Drawing inspiration from Vedic philosophy and the concept of the “atman,” she reflects on the difference between the temporary self and the deeper, unchanging part of us that exists beneath the noise.

 

Through personal reflections and honest moments of questioning, Radhi opens up about the pressure to perform, the fear of uncovering uncomfortable truths about ourselves, and the challenge of sitting in stillness long enough to actually listen inward. She shares how attachment, ego, distraction, and constant stimulation can pull us further away from ourselves—and why reconnecting often requires subtraction rather than adding more.

 

In this episode, you’ll learn:

 

  • What Vedic philosophy says about the “true self”
  • The difference between your identity and your deeper consciousness
  • How attachment and ego shape the way we move through life
  • Why stillness is essential for self-awareness and clarity
  • The subtle ways we perform in relationships, work, and daily life
  • How to recognize inherited beliefs and conditioned identities
  • Why uncovering yourself is more about remembering than becoming
  • Small practices to help you reconnect with who you really are

 

Whether you’re feeling lost, overwhelmed by expectations, or simply craving a deeper connection with yourself, this episode is a gentle reminder that your true self isn’t something you need to create—it’s something that’s already been there all along.
