Ep. 90: The Mind-Fuck of Aging

Let’s face it: getting older is a total mind-fuck. Even though our minds feel youthful, our bodies tell a different story. Society says our value is determined by how young we look, and even though we know it’s complete bullshit, we can’t help but pinch and prod at the wrinkles. Danny J and Jill talk about aging, and how we can’t rely on the outer work to make us happy without doing the inner work.
