                  • #62: Is Global Conflict ACTUALLY Inner Conflict?

                    In this episode, William Lam, Michael Mahoney, and Brady Edwards explain why they were in Tel Aviv to create a better resolution for the world around us.

                    In this podcast, we take the listeners on a journey to Tel Aviv, where we describe the powerful emotions evoked by the surroundings. The purpose of our visit was to assist Rabbi Curt Landry and the many players working to resolve the ongoing conflicts in the region.

                    While some changes have been enforced through behavior, changing beliefs, values, and identity is crucial for lasting peace. We explore the concept of mirroring and the idea that projecting our inner conflicts onto the outside world can lead to further turmoil. The ongoing conflict in the world can create a sense of chaos and uncertainty within us, leading to anxiety, fear, and anger. However, we encourage listeners to let go of the past, take responsibility for their actions, and understand the power they have to make a change.

                    By recognizing our own projections and taking responsibility for our emotions, we can break free from the cycle of negativity and tension, and find a way to release the inner conflict that may be keeping us stuck.
