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
