#200 Identity Crisis & The Evolution of "Mr. Jean"

The Inquisitive Nobody Podcast

Another 100 episodes, another milestone. I'm diving internally and giving you the latest on the goings on in my life! First off, I talk about catching the entertainment bug and discovering my identity (in terms of career) but also how I, foolishly, thought my identity and purpose was being taken from me. Next, growing up to fill the role of adulthood and becoming "Mr. Jean." But that title are big shows to fill. How can I deal with all the weight of becoming "Mr. Jean" when all I ever saw myself as is "Martini?" Dilemmas Dilemmas. Tune in to hear the whole story.
