1.6 - Looking in The Wrong Mirror

In Episode 6 of The Grey Area Podcast, Gabe and Stella get into what happens when you're putting all your energy into fixing the wrong thing — going to the gym twice a day when the real problem is how you see yourself, spiraling over a typo in an email to 200 people when no one's dying, and the feedback loops that have been telling you you're not enough since you were a kid. Then they build their Mentor Man — the idea that your mentor isn't one person but a composite, assembled from everyone who shaped how you think, feel, trust your gut, and keep moving. Head, heart, gut, arms, legs — each one a different person.

The Grey Area is where Gen Z talks about the stuff that doesn't have clean answers — business, culture, identity, and everything in between. New episodes every Monday. Part of the Almost Reckless universe from CP Media.
