In this episode of Trash Talk, Erica Breuer and Erin Thomas take the mantra “Choose curiosity over fear” for a spin. Popularized by Elizabeth Gilbert, examining how borrowed wisdom and parasocial admiration sneaks into our identity-building. There is a fine line between inspiration and parroting wisdom it for social credit
Can a line ever truly become yours?
