Glacial tension in the air. It was all going well, and suddenly the space is being wrapped into a palpable atmosphere of awkwardness and deep seated discomfort. The silence is deafening and the seconds feel like hours or even days as everybody is either frozen, giggling nervously, or looking for the fire escape... Sounds familiar? We've (almost) all felt that at one point. And quite often, it happens following a sharing that didn't find its audience, getting many to think "too much information". What makes witnessing vulnerability so difficult, have we forgotten how to be with each other's pains and discomforts? In essence, how to be human? And how can we do this better? This is what we share and discuss today, on the Liku-Liku Podcast. Enjoy.
This is Reality Check, where we discuss important topics and concepts that form the foundation of our lives, and yet need to be contemplated so that perspectives may open the way to fresh new takes and hopefully help us deal with that nagging feeling of being stuck. Facts matter for sure, but equally or even more importantly, we want to put all options on the table and relate openly about what we may have missed as a result of our unescapable biases and other horse blinders. This is a place where we revisit what we thought we understood or knew, in order to spark new growth.
As usual, please note that this is not a replacement for adequate treatment, so please get in touch with someone qualified to help you if you are struggling more than you should. This includes seeing a doctor for medical attention or seeking therapy for affective and mental health challenges.
