Beyond The Surface episodes

  • SILENCE (our forgotten superpower...)

    For Feedbacks

    In a world overflowing with noise, both external and internal, silence often feels uncomfortable. Yet, silence is more than the absence of sound; it is a language of its own. In this episode of Beyond The Surface, we explore the philosophy and power of silence. From the wisdom of ancient thinkers to the role silence plays in our relationships and self-growth, we uncover why choosing silence can sometimes speak louder than words.

    Join me as we reflect on questions like:

    • Why do we fear silence in conversations?
    • How can silence help us listen better, not only to others, but to ourselves?
    • And what can philosophy, psychology, and personal experience teach us about embracing stillness?

    This is not just an episode about being quiet — it’s about learning to hear the world, and ourselves, more clearly.Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā  Ā Ā

  • The Enlightenment: Thinking Our Way to Freedom

    For Feedbacks

    "I may not agree with you, but I will defend to the death your right to say it." — Voltaire.

    In this episode, we journey through the Enlightenment—an era that reshaped how we think, speak, and challenge the world around us. It's not just about history or philosophy; it's about the courage to question, to reason, and to value freedom of thought above all. I also share my personal reflections on how Enlightenment ideals still echo in our daily lives, and why they matter more than ever today.

From the Stoics to the skeptics, from virtue to pleasure, we explore how different schools of thought have tried to define happiness and why it’s not the same for everyone. We also touch on cultural differences, ancient wisdom, and the very human desire to live a fulfilling life.
