What if the life you've spent decades building no longer feels like yours?

In this episode of Dysfunctional, Josh sits down with coach, mediator, yoga teacher and author Wyndham James to explore what really happens when success stops feeling successful.

How people become trapped in lives that look good on paper

The hidden cost of people-pleasing and performance

Why certainty can kill curiosity and growth
