This week we dive into a wide-ranging discussion that touches on personal growth, emotional maturity, and the intricacies of human behavior. We explore the impact of emotionally immature parents on their children and how such traits can manifest in their own lives, often through patterns of behavior that are hard to break. The conversation meanders through the significance of global community versus global market, the challenges of creating a just society, and the potential pitfalls of tribalism. We also touch on the concept of locus of control, the importance of externalizing struggles to cope better, and how AA's belief in a higher power might serve as a mental construct to help addicts externalize their issues. Spencer shares his thoughts on the healing fantasy and how distress can be a signal of deeper issues, while Kevin reflects on the difficulty of controlling one's reactions to external events. This episode is a blend of personal anecdotes, philosophical musings, and a bit of soda tasting!
