Welcome to our special end-of-year episode, where Neha talks with a past colleague and current professional peer Brian Stoll. Together they reflect on what it means to them to drop their armour – at work, home, and with friends. As part of this conversation, they also dig into sharing on social media, “emotionally unloading” to our friends and loved ones, perfectionism, psychological safety, and how all these different things can support, block, and degrade true vulnerability.
