Ambition with Rainesford Stauffer, Incompatibility, and Parasocial Relationships

Write in with your new merch ideas! A listener writes in to ask about what to do when they are their partner might grow in different directions, specifically when it comes to monogamy. Then, author Rainesford Stauffer joins the podcast to talk about OCD and ambition, reimagining striving for "all the gold stars," and walking the line between having a purpose and self-hatred over "failure." In Hypotheticals, Joan Sloane returns and there's obviously a corporate office for cat cafes.
