Hey, there! This week’s episode begins with a tea talk (healing tea in a The Little Prince mug) and a life update about coronavirus, motivation, and what I’ve been up to. I introduce attention seekers with an imaginary scenario, clarification, and the structure for this episode. Next, I share the types of attention seekers: loud & subtle. Then, I break down the attention process: cultivating the ground, the beginning, the feelings, and the consequences. Afterward, I look at attention seeking as a part of humanity: our voids, the art of admiration, its beauty, and the humility inside the experience. Lastly, I wrap up with my key takeaways, and favourites in streaming services, songs, and TikTok trends before signing off.
