#137 | Symptoms of a Sick Society - And the Implications for Relationships
About this episode
Anya Shakh explores the implications of a society losing its sacredness and the impact on relationships.
In this episode I explore what happens to society when we lose the sacred, when meaning, ritual, and honor gets replaced by spectacle and consumption backed by a larger distrust. Drawing on my background in brand strategy and research mixed with my psychology training, I bring together history, culture, and real stories to highlight some of our dysfunction. Listen in to learn about the lost art of ritual and ceremony, what happens when moral clarity goes away, what’s worse than keeping up with the Joneses, what honor actually looks like, female entitlement versus female support and admiration, and much more: References: Matrimony by Stephen Jenkinson The Way of Men by Jack Donovan 'Inside the Manosphere' by Jack Donovan: https://mrjackdonovan.substack.com/p/...
