LLP#065 - Truth or Consequences : Waking Up from the American Dream Part 1


Listen Later

Do you remember ever being part of a shouting match (as a rebellious teenager or perhaps the parent on the other side) involving a "You're going to tell me the truth right now!" quickly followed by a "... Or ELSE??!!!". We definitely can relate, as it is, for better or worse, one of the games that we human beings can't seem to quit playing... Truth or Consequences, which we named this episode after, is not only a TV game but it's also the name of a town in the US, and a phrase that describes the lifestyle that many people around the world have chosen to live by. It represents the shattered dreams, lofty goals and golden aspirations of our forefathers that were based on the ideals adopted from their leaders. However, these ideals have resulted in a short-sighted vision for Humanity, leaving a struggling to deny our shadows and realize our shortcomings. As a result, we are left with a lifetime of work to find the truth within ourselves and shed light on the path of our own redemption and Healing. In this week's episode, we will explore the concept of Truth or Consequences and delve deeper into its implications for our lives. Join us, as we discuss the challenges and opportunities of finding our own truth, and living a life that is authentic, and fulfilling. Thank you so much for being here and let's begin our journey towards self-discovery and growth.

This is Reality Check, where we discuss important topics and concepts that form the foundation of our lives, and yet need to be contemplated so that perspectives may open the way to fresh new takes and hopefully help us deal with that nagging feeling of being stuck. Facts matter for sure, but equally or even more importantly, we want to put all options on the table and relate openly about what we may have missed as a result of our unescapable biases and other horse blinders. This is a place where we revisit what we thought we understood or knew, in order to spark new growth.

As usual, please note that this is not a replacement for adequate treatment, so please get in touch with someone qualified to help you if you are struggling more than you should. This includes seeing a doctor for medical attention or seeking therapy for affective and mental health challenges.
