Don’t Pigeonhole Yourself
I once thought a good life meant having the right answers. Over time I began to feel the dissonance between what I said and what I truly believed. It took me years to name it—and even longer to give myself permission to question without guilt. In this reflection, I share how honest conversations, including six episodes with my son on his podcast Finding My Religion, helped me trace the journey and land on Buddhist principles that now guide me toward presence, steadiness, and compassion.
