In this episode, we dive into the month everyone loves to complain about: February. The short, awkward, emotionally aggressive stretch of the year that somehow feels heavier than it should. We’ll unpack where February actually came from, why it was never meant to be a happy or inspirational month, and how ancient humans used purification rituals, survival festivals, and eventually Valentine’s Day to get through it. From Roman calendars and forgotten rituals to modern burnout, breakups, and seasonal mood shifts, this episode explains why February doesn’t inspire us — it tests us. Because February isn’t broken. It’s doing exactly what it was designed to do: tell the truth and make sure we’re ready for what comes next.
