We’ve all felt it: that fear of standing out, of being “too different.” From Monty Python’s Life of Brian to Prince, Bowie, and Steve Jobs, this episode explores why we’re wired to conform — and what happens when we dare to break free. Pellegrino and Francois dig into brain science, personal stories, and cultural icons to uncover why being different isn’t just okay — it’s a superpower.
Inspired by a suggestion from Pellegrino’s daughter Emily, this episode asks: what’s riskier — being laughed at today, or regretting a life where you never showed who you really are?
