Falter Ego

In this ep, I look at the weird ends of the spectrum telling us to either stay exactly as we are, or become who we are supposed to be by *gasp* "putting in effort"! What a revelation. Though neither side actually tells us how to do these things, so we're left with just lifestyle-quacks hoarding eyeballs for their own benefit while giving us nothing in return. Discuss :)

In this episode, I briefly introduce Internal Family Systems. It's about your "internal" family of characters that make up your personality, and how recognising and engaging these can lead to huge (mental health) benefits. I also discuss how it nicely integrates and overlaps with much of Buddhist psychology.

In this episode I look at the left's campaign strategy and why it seems to keep losing to a more digitially cunning right. I also look at how we sometimes fail those campaigns by being poor ambassadors of what we are meant to represent. Also... what's with white people making a lot of white noise during a campaign that's meant to be about centring Aboriginal Australians...?
