With Biden and Trump set to face-off in their first presidential debate of 2024, Michael Kosta is taking a look at each candidate’s preparation.

In this episode I sit down for a very real and raw conversation with Ilana Worsham, a brave woman who had a MASSIVE WAKE UP moment that led her to leave a 20+ year marriage with  what she calls a "classic narcissist".  She got a divorce, got her kids on track, and lost sixty pounds. She also took control of her finances and is now in a much better place where she can reflect on how her codependent state got her into this mess (and kept her there for so long)

⚡️YOU DO NOT WANT TO MISS THIS EPISODE.⚡️

We also cover:

* How her childhood experiences shaped her beliefs about herself, and how she was taught to take care of everyone else and not to shine too brightly. This led to bypassing her own inner knowing.

*How growing up with a narcissistic father led to her attracting that type of man in her adult relationships (the pattern showing up to be healed).

* Tools and tips to manage the many challenging transitions life brings (these are helpful for everyone!)

* Her darkest hour and how she finally woke up to the disfunction that was real and rampant in her relationship.

* The importance of protecting and making all children feel loved and important, especially during times of chaos or change.

* The importance of tending to the body, and the energy stored within it, in order to heal from trauma and move forward in life.

*Finally, they discuss the idea of finding oneself after experiencing a period of loss, and the concept of addiction and how it can manifest in different ways

PLUS SO MUCH MORE!!

Today we bring you the second episode of Beyond Us, an all-new series made in association with Essentia Foundation. 

Looking for a link we mentioned? It's here: https://linktr.ee/philosophyforourtimes

Evolution favours cooperation as well as competition. But to what extent is human competitiveness culture-bound? Is the competitive dynamic environmentally, politically and psychologically sustainable, or excessive, delusional and bound for disaster? Do the values and assumptions that drive competitive behaviour still serve us? And what, in any case, are the alternatives.

Series hosts Bernardo Kastrup and Fred Matser discuss the fascinating topic of competition with the American evolutionary psychologist, Donald Hoffman.
