The Science of Being Delusional (And Why I'll Never Stop)
Ever get lost in a fantasy where you’re famous, rich, or dating your celebrity crush — all based on absolutely nothing? Same. This week I’m diving deep into the art of being completely, unapologetically delusional — and why I think it’s actually a survival skill.
We’ll talk about the harmless (and sometimes unhinged) daydreams that get us through the day, the psychology behind why we do it, and why a little bit of self-delusion might not be such a bad thing after all.
Because sometimes, reality is exhausting — and the fantasy version of life is way more fun.
