Episode 23: The Hideout – with Will Wright
In this raw and reflective solo episode of the I AM Self-ish podcast, host Will Wright shares his personal story of quarantine—a time that unexpectedly became his emotional hideout. What started as a global crisis became, for Will, a rare moment of calm. Free from external noise, comparison, and constant busyness, he found clarity, peace, and a deeper sense of self.
But when the world reopened, all that inner work got tested.
Will walks us through what it felt like to lose that safe space, how anxiety and insecurity came rushing back, and the tools he now uses to reclaim peace—even when life feels overwhelming. From body image struggles to mental health breakthroughs, this episode is a vulnerable invitation to rethink how we define progress, safety, and healing.
Because sometimes the greatest transformation happens when we’re forced to sit still.
