You are asking whether our experiences shape us OR we shape our experiences? Just think what we might do with the answer to that...

Hello Neel. Thanks for asking! Currently reading through the chapter "Socrates on trial". I like how you start out with discussing his daimoniom - an inner voice or intuition. If one of his interlocutors had ever said they knew what they knew because of their own diamoniom, I wonder what then?

Good question. Are such words a gift or a burden?

Any chance of an episode on Socrates?

I think that sometimes it is, when a chink of uncertainty opens up - I like the Greek word aporia - then something new is possible. I’ve witnessed this a number of times in therapy but I’m not sure therapy is just about uncertainty. Maybe it is?

That’s a really good question, I wonder how it can be answered. Because if it can then wow!?

That’s a great question.

If only it were possible to talk with rather than about them…

Looking forward to it.
