Listen Later

In week four of the Object To Icon Book Study , Rhys explores how we move from objectification to authentic human connection. This episode tackles the challenging journey of removing our protective masks and creating spaces for genuine vulnerability. Rhys shares insights from both Orthodox Christian tradition and contemporary counseling approaches, offering practical wisdom on:

  • Understanding our tendency to objectify others and ourselves

  • The delicate balance between vulnerability and boundaries

  • How to practice "levels of disclosure" in different relationships

  • Techniques for being present with others' pain without trying to fix it

  • The role of community in healing and growth

  • Transforming harmful patterns into opportunities for deeper connection

  • Building safe spaces for authentic disclosure in community settings

  • Rhys weaves together psychological principles, spiritual wisdom, and practical experience to show how we can create spaces where masks can safely soften into veils.

    "To fully live is to be vulnerable and respond to the vulnerability of others."
