Can You Just Do Things? - By Cate Hall - Asterisk


Listen Later

AI reading of Can You Just Do Things? - By Cate Hall - Asterisk.Cate Hall joins Clara Collier and Jake Eaton to discuss her forthcoming book You Can Just Do Things and unpack what agency really means, beyond the Silicon Valley buzzword. Hall offers a definition centred on freedom rather than ambition, exploring why high achievement and high agency aren’t the same thing, and how someone can follow an impressive path without ever truly choosing it. The conversation moves through the catalysts that spark genuine personal transformation, the dark side of “high agency” culture, why Hall finds the term “NPC” morally repugnant, and the surprising role that relationships and even Enneagram types play in how we develop autonomy. A thoughtful examination of what it means to actually live a self-directed life, and whether that’s something that can be taught, or only received as a kind of grace.
