The Anatomy of Loneliness

In this deeply personal episode, Henrik talks about his relationship with the TV show Buffy the Vampire Slayer, weaving together themes of loneliness, redemption, and the healing power of storytelling. From his darkest days in a Stockholm suburb to his current life as a content creator, Henrik reflects on how fictional characters can become real comfort during difficult times. With his signature stream-of-consciousness style, he explores the beauty of imperfect art, the nature of storytelling itself, and how even "crap" can be transformative when created with heart. Between musings about narrative structure and childhood play, Henrik opens up about his own struggles with unemployment, heartbreak, and finding his way back to happiness. This episode is a perfect example of how Henrik's seemingly random thoughts come together to create something surprisingly profound and comforting.For more information on Henrik Ståhl, click here: https://linktr.ee/Henrikstahl Become a supporting member and listen to ad free episodes at: https://plus.acast.com/s/falli-asleep-with-henrik.
