  • THE NEED TO FIX OTHERS

    This podcast episode discusses the issue of "fixing” others. This is a deeper level of unhealthy caretaking that negatively affects both parties. The inability to tolerate uncomfortable feelings in ourselves can lead to projecting those feelings onto others. The consequences of attempting to "fix" another (instead of healing ourselves) are examined.

  • THE IDEALIZED SELF-IMAGE, THE CURSE OF SUCCESS, AND THE GIFT OF SUFFERING

    This podcast episode discusses the peddling of spiritual practices to prop up our idealized self-image. These masks that we all wear are tonified by things such as the promise of personal success. The counterpoint to such false paths is the variety of losses that we suffer in life. The gift of suffering is that it tears down the idealized self-image and gives the true self an opportunity to shine through.
