In this episode of The Identity Work Podcast, we dive deep into the fascinating question: “Whose desires are you chasing?” We explore how our unconscious imitation of others’ desires shapes what we want, whether it’s a career, home, or lifestyle.
Inspired by the concept of mimetic desire, we discuss real-life decisions such as selecting a neighborhood or choosing between public and private education for children. Adam shares candid insights on how his understanding of mimetic desire has led him to reflect deeply on aligning his aspirations with values exemplified by Jesus, including generosity, confidence, deep friendships, and purposeful work.
Join us as we unpack the subtle yet profound ways our social circles influence our ambitions and happiness.
