Episode 55: Influence vs. Control – and how to walk with strength and compassion in a world at war

Episode 55: Influence vs. Control – and how to walk with strength and compassion in a world at war

It’s been a minute! Jacob and Scott are back after a six-month hiatus with the first episode of Season 3. After a fairly brief catch-up, they don’t waste much time before diving into the deep end and discussing the collective response to the war between Israel and Palestine. How do we keep our hearts open, how do we stay connected to compassion and love in the face of such monstrous actions?


The friends talk about how difficult it is to stay centered in love when invitations all around us are calling on us to hate. They discuss how they navigate these waters and what practices help them to remember their hearts. It’s a doozy of an episode after so much time away and highlights the honesty and vulnerability we’ve come to expect from and appreciate about them both.


Don’t forget to get Scott’s new book, Enough as You Are, available everywhere on October 17th! Find it here: https://amzn.to/46sBYE0
