In Episode 11, Mike and Elisa delve deeper into a topic briefly discussed in last week's live stream. They discuss their own personal experiences when it comes to defining your own belief system versus simply following societal standards and/or the beliefs you've been taught by your parents. Specific topics include:
- What are societal standards for being a "good girl" and "good boy" and how can this strict definition at a young age limit someone from finding their own path?
- How have Elisa and Mike come to recognize and change their own belief and behavior patterns?
- What specific influences have Elisa's and Mike's parents had on them to make them who they are today?
- What do Elisa and Mike think defines a "good" spouse in a polyamorous, non-monogamous marriage?
Also, near the beginning of the episode, Elisa is trying to remember a field of study where a person's behavior and environment has a physical effect on their genes. That field of study is epigenetics.
