In our first conversation, we dive into “My Identity in 5 Objects” by María Castro Jiménez — a story that invites us to reflect on what truly shapes who we are. From olive trees and books to the places we call home, we explore the symbols that travel with us through life, even when we don’t notice them.

This episode is a gentle beginning — playful, unpolished, and deeply human — a reminder that identity isn’t fixed, but gathered, one object and one moment at a time.
