Episode notes
Start Healing Where You Can On The Circle
- It's futile to locate a single origin for collective sickness; instead start where you can act.
- Aubrey frames the question 'which came first' as a Zen koan and chooses to tend his own part of the circle.
Use Faith To Start New Ways While Acting Boldly
- Use faith to attempt new ways of being while still applying responsibility and skill.
- Erick and Aubrey say faith lets you commit before seeing the path; then bring rationality, creativity and effort to make it work.
Let Grief Be Felt Not Projected
- Let people grieve and hold space rather than weaponize their grief as stories to attack others.
- Aubrey recommends breathwork, dance, and community rituals to safely release animal grief without projecting it onto loved ones.
