I’m so excited to welcome back Dr. Jody Carrington, our guest from episode 8, for a conversation about connection, relationships, and being brave. As the author of Kids These Days and newly released Teachers These days, we catch up on everything that’s happened since she last joined us and how her mindset and strategy have changed since writing her first book. Jody also shares why connection is more important than ever, especially as we’re adapting to life while the global pandemic continues, and gives us brave actions we can take to start reconnecting.

Our guest this week, Jules Evans, researcher, philosopher, and the person that inspired me to dive into this whole realm of mixing spirituality with conspiracy, joined me for a conversation to talk all things socratic and ecstatic, conspirituality, and creating boundaries in your own spirituality. Jules tells us how a freak skiing accident helped him heal from a life of misadventure with drugs, and led him all the way back to the Stoics of Ancient Greece and the work that he does. We chat about the concept of conspirituality and being able to enjoy spirituality without falling into these more darker areas.

A couple weeks ago, I read an Apple News article about California’s yoga and wellness community having a QAnon problem. This led me to dig even further into my curiousity surrounding conspirituality and I knew I wanted to share this with you. I want to know why a community that represents connection, love, and acceptance adopt an ideology opposite to that? In this post, I’m going to dive into what conspirituality is as a foundational whole as well as the human behavior aspect, and then I’ll share some action items and questions you can take away from this post.
