This week's podcast explores the concept of human two-facedness, inspired by the Roman god Janus with his two faces, who represents transitions and duality. I question why people often present different sides of themselves depending on the situation or audience, sometimes being kind and supportive publicly while acting differently in private. This inconsistency, like the hidden identity of the Wizard of Oz, can lead to doubts about someone's true intentions. I advocate for authenticity and vulnerability as a way to gain genuine support and suggest that kindness is a learned trait that should be applied consistently to everyone, not just those who can offer validation.
