12 Questions Every Friend Group Should Ask (ft. Proust Questionnaire) | The Hop Pod Ep 145

You’ve seen all the different ways people try to understand themselves: MBTI, Enneagram, and even our past episode on attachment styles. But for today’s episode, we’re trying a simple questionnaire said to reveal our true selves (or so it claims): the Proust Questionnaire. From gratitude-filled questions about what matters most, to deeper ones about fear, regret, and identity, we use this chance to get to know one another even better (than we already do). Along the way, we ask: is there really only one “true self”, or do different “selves” show up in different contexts? Would our answers have been different in our early 20s? And is there a danger in relying too much on personality tests like these? 00:00 Teaser 00:50 Topic of the day 01:14 About the Proust Questionnaire 02:02 1.
