Ever felt the world slipping out of control? Ever wish you could control the seemingly endless stream of information that barrages us daily? This episode, featuring the insightful Carlos from the TikTok channel, Walk in the Light, takes us on a journey through our modern anxieties, exploring how our ever-growing access to information may be fueling our dwindling sense of control. Carlos provokes us to question our presuppositions, challenging the notion that our ancestors were free from existential worries. 

Imagine if you could manage the anxiety brought on by current events. Is it even possible to temper the flood of news that shapes our thoughts and feelings, without feeling overwhelmed? As we weave through the labyrinth of worry and control, we also unravel how our minds instinctively guard us from potential dangers and how to sift through what truly matters to us. We further explore how comedy and personal experiences influence our understanding of safety and the pressures of certain societal expectations, like dating the 'right kind of white boy.'

Content creation and podcasting is no walk in the park. It's a challenge that can trigger anxiety at the best of times, and even more so when juggling a disability. Carlos shares his candid experience of creating a podcast series where he delves into raw and deeply personal topics. We wrap up our conversation with Carlos, reminiscing on the power of living in the present moment and how seemingly insignificant moments can indeed be powerful.
