Worth is a market word. A price. Somewhere along the way we let it price us. But if there was a price, would we even want to set it?
People are not currency. A human being and the soul we carry cannot be measured that way. It sounds mushy. It is also true. Even if empathy and loving community are not your thing, the fact remains: no human is a price. Not even the worst of us.
This episode sits with the moments you performed your value to a room, why titles measure power and not intelligence, and what it costs to keep your arms out for people who never asked. Were you taught to put a price on something that was never for sale? How do you divine worthy?
