A Year to Understand Yourself

A Year to Understand Yourself delivers clear explanations of why your twenties feel like a maze and leaves you understanding yourself a little better.

Hi, I'm Louis Dockers. I’m the voice that sits across from you when a question nags at night. I started this show because I kept wondering why so many of our choices in our twenties feel inevitable and yet surprising.

Each episode I unpack the science behind a feeling or habit, speaking plainly, mapping research onto everyday moments, and closing with a thought that lingers. I explore relationships, work, money, mental health, friendship, and everything that makes growing up both thrilling and exhausting. You probably scroll, overthink, and say “I’ll fix it later” without knowing why.

New episodes come out every Thursday and Sunday at 4:00 AM, each one named like a small psychological mirror. This show is for restless twenty-somethings, new graduates finding their feet, and anyone trying to make sense of messy friendships.

If you want to understand a particular knot in your life, this is your place. Follow along and think of the show as a lamp you switch on to see the shapes of what you feel.
