New substack: Self Interrupted with Kit Costello

Are we performing, living or existing? To answer this question is think we are doing a little of each. But what goes wrong if you lean too heavily on one option? 

In this episode of Self Interrupted I talk about the benefits of performing in your life but also the negativity it can bring. 

I touch on my recent breakup and how I found that I was performing not only to everyone around me but also to myself. I told myself that I was okay when in actuality I wasn’t - I was performing.

I really love this episode and once again feel like I shared another page from my journal with you!


Substacks mentioned: 

The intimacy of not talking again - Personal Scriptures

the neuroscience of childlike wonder (and how to find it again)


Enjoy this episode! 

Sending love, (as ALWAYS)
