Healthy development happens when those needs can be safely expressed and met. Children who experience love, safety, connection, and support learn that their needs matter. As adults, maturity is not the absence of need—it’s the ability to recognize, express, and respond to those needs in healthy ways. Having needs isn't weakness; it's part of being human. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/body-soul-spirit-6414617/episodes/the-psychology-of-need/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/body-soul-spirit-6414617/the-psychology-of-need.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
