🎙️ Episode Highlight: AoE #007: Evolving The 'I That Chooses'. 🎧

In this episode of Agents of Everything I am responding to a listener request to provide further insight into developing 'the I that chooses'. Across 70 minutes we explore the different influences that shape our lives and how we can find our power within that influence. On the way we discuss the problem frame versus the outcome frame and how our 'map of the world' our perception of choice.

Join me in this exploration of the potential of 'the I that chooses' to take us beyond our programming and patterns. Drawing on inspiration such diverse sources as NLP, Stoicism, REBT, Byron Katie, Alfred Adler and Steve Chandler and more, we unpack the nature of an empowered choosing that goes so much further than simple willpower.

We examine the recursive relationship between conceptions and choices and how we can choose different ways of sense-making and seeing that in turn create further choices. We also delve into the pitfalls of 'control addiction' and the misconception that it brings safety.
