The second episode of our four-part mini-series, Inner Lives, is live.

In an era when we're seemingly busier than ever, we're inundated with content, we're performing on social media, how do people maintain their inner lives?

But, as we do so, we find ourselves thinking: What about our relationships with ourselves?

Priya Parker, author of The Art of Gathering, shares how discussing her childhood dreams with her mother equipped her with the tools to deeply understand what it is that she desired. "I think exploring other worlds, whether it's dream, or whether it's something like tai chi or painting...can be a helpful metaphor to help you understand your own life."
