Episode Synopsis
Navigating Life's Complexities: Age, Perception, and Personal Growth Are you ready for a thought-provoking conversation that tackles some of society's most uncomfortable truths? In this episode of The Building Better Humans Project, hosts Glenn and Mili dive deep into the complex topics of age dynamics in relationships, societal perceptions, and the journey of personal growth. They don't hold back as they address the stark difference between consenting adult relationships and the predatory behavior that targets vulnerable young people. The conversation explores how social media has created spaces where people feel emboldened to judge others without context, and how these interactions often reveal more about the critics than those they criticize. Through personal anecdotes and reflections, Glenn and Mili share insights on resilience, anti-fragility, and the importance of taking ownership of your personal development journey.
