About this episode

The episode discusses the concept of resistance to life's events and the importance of acknowledgment for personal growth.

When we oppose what Life is offering in the moment, we can feel justified and empowered. But it is precisely this opposition that creates the personal sense of self. Not opposing Life does not mean that we condone or even like what is happening; it only means that we acknowledge the fact that it is what is happening. That acknowledgment free us to act as we understand the need to act.
