This episode is the last section of Chapter 2. I talk about what makes cognitive freedom relevant to our cultural conditioning and our egoic habits that leave us disillusioned and astray. In part, I actually introduce a simple Taoist concept, one that speaks directly to the essence of this project and its definition. A concept that I plan to go a l…

Get a copy of Cognitive Liberty to read along. Just click the icon store of choice. This episode is about integrating feedback and what this means in our societal evolution. Our cognitive liberation often depends on questioning who we are, and what the self is, and recognizing that the things we’re told and the things we believe could be a falsehoo…

Feel free to get a copy of the book so you can read along In this episode, I cover the section from the book on Interpersonal Neurobiology and its implications for what it can tell us about ourselves, our mental health, and the relationships that contribute to the development of our brains. Friendships are what give us our sense of connection to th…

In this episode, I scratched the surface of perceiving the ego differently. What does the ego offer to our neurological and psychological way of being? How do our social circumstances reinforce the ego? And what does this mean for our lives on a personal level? In our journey of becoming more self-aware, I think it's important to question how our e…

This episode is about how societal habits mimic the autistic tendencies we unconsciously engage in when it comes to the cultural ideologies and economic policies that keep us stuck in a box of limited perspective, especially when it comes to our ability to self-reflect how we treat the environment, each other, and ourselves. As self-referencing bei…

This episode was recorded on July 8th, 2023. In this episode, I share a story of some recent adversity I faced personally. Part of this lends to the ongoing process of how challenging it can be to summon our resilient nature when we’re faced with unexpected changes and curveballs, which can render us at the mercy of nature to the point where we may…

In this episode, I introduce a book I’m reading by Gregg Braden, who introduces a critical question: who are we? As we address this question, we can reflect more deeply on our choices based on free will. But how much free will do we actually have? This question could also be “How conscious are we?” Be it of the choices we make or how much of our li…

In this episode, I hop into the significance of our neurological energy as derived from the fungal kingdom. We are animals first, and humans second. So, in order to get in touch with our human nature, we must become familiar with our animal nature, and thus our fungal nature. Our roots come from the fungal kingdom, which is where animals come from.…

In episode 11, I open the floodgates of chapter 2, Cultural Conditioning, by describing the indisputable fact that we are survival mechanisms at the end of the day. Our energy is based on how we respond to our natural and social environment. Without getting too deep into our unique subjectivity, we mustn’t forget that we are beings subject to our o…

In this episode, I lead off by acknowledging the death of a dear friend and former supervisor of mine, Valerie LeGrand. Thank you for everything you taught me in the realm of person-centered human services, fiscal responsibility, and much more. My hat is off to you, your work ethic, and the legacy you built. Huge loss for the world. We will always …

In this episode, I open up by paying tribute to my family’s recent loss of their dog, our beloved Maisy. As is the fact that we all learn differently – we all grieve differently, too. It is up to each of us on an individual basis to find a deeper capacity within ourselves to work together and love and tolerate one another. In doing so, we can overt…

In this episode, I provide a glimpse of how our comfort zones relate to autism spectrum disorder (ASD). It’s important to acknowledge how our comfort zones have pros and cons embedded within their operating systems, which can either leverage our sense of well-being or blind us to the reality that life is a process of changes happening all around us…

In this episode, I dive into the section in the book that has to do with the diversity of autism characterized by a binary relationship between the intellectual wiring and the emotional wiring of the brain. Using two examples of autistic individuals, I outline that their way of thinking depends on how they relate to their world: one through a sense…

This episode was recorded shortly after daylight savings time, so I was feeling a bit off due to lack of sleep in trying to adjust to the new morning schedule. I began by introducing a form of augmentative/alternative communication (AAC) known as Facilitated Communication, or FC for short. FC is still a very fringe topic so it’s tricky to talk abou…

This episode was one of my favorites to record because it covered some of the key points of autism based on what I’ve personally discovered. I was so excited to present this section that I decided to read it first and then debrief the episode by ranting on about it afterward. Autism operates primarily like an automatic force outside of consciousnes…

This episode is where I open up Part One of the book, The Social Continuum: Autism in Culture and Ego in Subconscious. This becomes the central focus of the first few minutes of the episode, trying to describe what I mean by the opening title. Then I segway into the relevance of why it’s important to relate to autism spectrum disorder (ASD), which …

In this episode, I elaborate on the structure of the book and the building blocks of its contents. From the last episode's reference to The Trinity of Transcendence (Figure 1), I break down its interrelatedness of how the mind, body, and soul correspond to our knowing, doing, and being as individuals. Side note: I apologize for the technical diffic…

In this episode, I get into the first half of the introduction of the book. In doing so, I loosely define some key terms, such as the title of the book/podcast itself in terms of freedom of the mind and freedom from the mind. These terms may seem to contradict each other, but I would argue they complement each other in many ways. Piggybacking off t…

In this episode, I provide some background information on my research as a Human Services Provider, and what led me to why I wrote the book. It's a broad brushstroke of acknowledging how our human uniqueness lends to the nature of our autistic tendencies. That our animal nature is part of our human nature and our personal identities. My book would …

This is a very quick not very important rant about YouTube Rewind. I don’t know where YouTube has gone. Everything feels fake and forced. I thought YouTube was a platform to express creativity but it’s really just a breeding ground for Jake Paul clones.

POV: "Stealing Illegal Immigrant's Jobs" by Steven Crowder • Let’s Get Into the Meat of Things • We’re almost at the Bone ? • This is the chicken wing bone Basically I share my thoughts on a vid that Steven Crowder posted about stealing immigrant’s jobs. Basically a “if I pulled a you on you you wouldn’t like that” type of situation…
