"The less you care, the harder you come."

Your therapist won't tell you this, but caring too much is the ultimate cockblock to pleasure. And you, my sweet, overly invested friend, are drowning in a sea of giving-a-fuck when you could be floating in an ocean of delicious indifference.

Welcome to this week's episode, where we're going to strip you of your precious concerns like a dominatrix peeling off your armor of good intentions.

You think you need more love? More connection? More meaning?

Wrong.

What you need is the courage to stop giving a damn, and I'm here to hurt you in all the ways that'll set you free.

Get ready for:
- A master class in the art of strategic apathy
- The dirty truth about why your caring addiction is cock-blocking your evolution
- How psychedelics might divorce you from your neediness (and why that's hot)
- The sexiest thing about power (hint: it doesn't care what you think about it)

Listen as we explore why drama is the foreplay of existence, and how your resistance to pleasure is just fear wearing a consent-culture costume.

This isn't self-help. This is self-harm in reverse – destroying the parts of you that keep sabotaging your liberation.

If you're clutching your pearls of wisdom too tight to let new pleasure in, this episode will teach you the art of letting go like a zen master having a tantric breakthrough.

WARNING: Side effects may include:
- Spontaneous outbreaks of not giving a fuck
- Increased pleasure tolerance
- Decreased tolerance for your own bullshit
- Sudden urges to prioritize your pleasure over others' comfort
- The ability to say "no" without writing a thesis to justify it

Available now wherever you get your permission to stop caring so damn much.

The stakes are high, but your anxiety about them doesn't have to be.

Come play in the space between caring too much and not caring at all. That's where the real pleasure lives.

And remember: If you're worried about whether you should listen to this episode, that's exactly why you need to.

Your enlightenment is optional. Your pleasure is mandatory.
