In this deeply engaging episode, I reconnect with my dear friend, Christina Carlson for a heartfelt conversation about life's many intricate layers. During our conversation, we explore the challenges and limitations of traditional education and the significance of acknowledging different types of intelligence. We also delve into complex themes of control, trauma response, and the process of evolving into more self-aware and connected individuals. Both of us share our personal journeys of understanding and managing our needs for control, the importance of self-compassion, and creating supportive and safe environments. If you're a deep thinker who appreciates pondering life's many questions, this episode offers a rich tapestry of insights into the human experience.
