Uncomfortable Conversations With Gregory

Do you know what you care about? Are you so sure in you principles, mission, and values that you are immune to interference from the chaotic events of the world around you? This show’s guest, Mariza, talks about how the aftermath of Donald Trump’s presidential election have affected her emotionally, even though no measureable difference has been made in her life. This leads into a broader discussion about how we let stories - not actual events - control our mindset and actions more than anything else. We all must take responsibility for what we care about, and not succumb to idle action for the sake of action, such as the case with those who protest or complain with no realize mechanism in place for getting what they want. Mariza will share her story of how she left her former life behind to travel the world and pursue what she really wanted after an impassioned viewing of Eat Pray Love. The ultimate goal of the person identified with a mission or principle is to become the superhuman embodiment of that idea.
