In this episode, we explore how embarrassment, social pressure, and the need for permission show up in everyday life—and what that reveals about mental health.

Key Takeaways:

Why people wait for others before taking action (doors, cake, and more)
How embarrassment manifests physically and influences behavior
The power of being the “first slice”—giving permission for others to follow
Mental health isn’t just about resources—it’s about creating safe spaces to act
