Relationships can be beautiful but messy. Ted Lasso is a show that highlights this idea in a relatable way. This week’s episode, “The Signal,” is jam-packed with storylines and interesting dynamics with our favorite characters.
In this episode, we’re breaking down several powerful themes within the storylines and character interactions, such as coming into your own as a leader, finding a balance between external success and internal satisfaction, and the Roy Kent effect.
We also go on to discuss the process of helping people overcome their limiting beliefs so they can show up as the best version of themselves, the different methods people have for dealing with emotions, the dynamics of modern male friendships, and the influence your family dynamics have on your relationships later in life.
“ It takes two people to create a pattern, but only one to change it. Oh, mercy!” – Jeff (40:07)
