Episode 06 - Does the End Justify the Means?
What if doing something morally questionable could create a better outcome for everyone else? In this episode, I’m talking about utilitarianism — the idea that the right action is the one that creates the greatest overall good. I explore the appeal of this way of thinking, where I disagree with it, and the uncomfortable question behind it: can a good outcome ever justify a bad action? A conversation about morality, consequences, individual rights, and why sometimes there simply isn’t a perfect answer. Jana on Record 🎙️

Episode 02 - Are You Actually Confident, or Are You Just Good at Hiding Insecurity?
What if the person who looks the most confident is actually the most insecure? We often mistake confidence for loudness, arrogance, or the need to prove ourselves. But what does real confidence actually look like? And how much of yours depends on other people’s approval? 🎙️

Episode 01 — Why Do We Respect Power More Than Kindness?
Would you rather be loved, respected, or feared? We like to believe kindness earns respect. But does it always? Why do we listen to powerful people we don’t even like? Why can confidence look like competence? And why does someone’s status sometimes change the way we see them? Let’s talk about the uncomfortable side of power and human nature.
