The Chameleon Effect | Fio Bros Podcast (#155)
Description
In this episode, we stop people-pleasing from slowly erasing who you are. You’ll learn the difference between adapting with integrity and changing yourself to be liked. From deciding to curse on the podcast, to locker-room pressure in high school, to Emerson’s reminder that being yourself is the hardest job there is, the big takeaway is simple: flex for respect, not approval—and never lose yourself trying to fit in.
