Wrestling with the Impossible

In this episode, we dive headfirst into the fascinating world of contradictions. What if life isn’t about choosing sides but embracing the tension of opposites? We explore the profound freedom of living in the "yes/and" instead of the restrictive "either/or." From religion's paradoxes to the unexpected wisdom in comedy, we uncover how contradictions challenge our thinking and help us grow. We’ll also examine the role of cognitive dissonance—why it’s uncomfortable, why it’s necessary, and how it shapes us into more resilient, empathetic people. The more we learn to hold contradictions, the better we become. Let’s get comfortable in the paradox.
