Joining me for the second episode is Holly Whitaker, a dear friend whose luminous mind lights up our conversation today.
Holly is the NYT bestselling author of Quit Like a Woman, the founder of Tempest Recovery, and the author of the Recovering newsletter. This is a far-reaching conversation that seeks to unravel the complexities of the current era, aiming to foster a deeper understanding of the world we inhabit. Topics include:
* Information overload, collective insanity, and the leading edge of culture
* How easy it is to make snap judgments in our online climate
* How we have reached the limit of critique and tearing things down (postmodern deconstructionism)
* A primer on the philosophy of metamodernism, which seeks to build something innovative and healing
* Finding comfort in uncertainty and holding multiple truths at once
* Humility, redemption, and the living practice of a love ethic
* How everyone can benefit from applying the principles of recovery
* How “sensemaking” demands a feminine touch infused with more heart and love
