Welcome back to the best kept secret - The Searchers Podcast! After a small hiatus, The Searchers podcast is back and talking about the struggles and beauty of navigating change. Life has been happening, and in this episode, they delve into navigating change and personal growth by sharing updates on their lives. Atem discusses the profound, undeniable transformation of becoming a new father, sharing the challenges and joys, and the necessity of becoming different. Kirron provides an update on life as a parent to older children who are transitioning out of school, leading him to a phase of rediscovering himself and figuring out what he wants to do now that his guiding role is shifting. Connecting their personal experiences to broader themes, they explore the idea that human experiences and emotions remain strikingly similar throughout time, prompting questions about how much humans have truly changed despite technological advancements [18:16, 33, 50, 120]. The conversation also touches on the difficulty of finding community today, the influence of learning theory and genetic predispositions [40:55, 87, 88, 121], the concept that we create our own reality based on perspective, and the importance of consciously choosing your response to situations and who you surround yourself with. Reading and learning from others' experiences are highlighted as valuable tools for refamiliarizing one's thinking and finding guidance.
