Tom Bilyeu's Impact Theory

Everything Wrong with the West | Jordan Peterson PT 2


Listen Later

Welcome back to Impact Theory with Tom Bilyeu! Today, we dive into Part 2 of our enlightening conversation with the renowned psychologist and philosopher, Jordan Peterson. In this episode, Tom and Jordan explore the complexities of emerging as a genuine individual and the delicate dance between order and chaos in shaping our identities. They critique the oversimplified notion of self-defined identity and discuss the profound impact of beliefs on emotions and behavior.


We delve into some weighty concepts, from the definition of God and the reality of evil to the negotiation of identity through childhood and social structures. Jordan shares thought-provoking insights on the transformative power of narratives, the importance of confronting suffering with courage, and the timeless battle against entropy.
