In Nobody Wants This Season 2, Joanne wrestles with one of life’s oldest questions — Who am I, and where do I belong?

In today’s episode, Alex Hill explores how Joanne’s journey mirrors Zen and Buddhist ideas of the self as ever-changing — not fixed, but flowing — and the Stoic belief that true belonging comes from within, through virtue and authenticity.
