About this episode

Do the people around you genuinely want you to grow — or do they need you to stay the same? Five conversations for a Sunday morning. On connection, reinvention, and the person you're afraid to become. This is Perfect Days — a morning podcast built around ideas worth carrying with you. Today: the psychology of why some friendships last and others quietly dissolve; Jordan Peterson's unsentimental guide to knowing who is truly in your corner; Roger Federer on the mathematics of failure and the long work of reinvention; Carl Jung's Shadow and what happens when we stop running from the parts of ourselves we'd rather not see; and a quiet, intimate message across time — from you, to the future self you're working so hard to become. 💛 HOW SOME FRIENDSHIPS LAST — AND OTHERS DON'T — ISEULT GILLESPIE 🧠 HOW TO KNOW YOUR TRUE FRIENDS — PROF.
