Episode 8: Fear of Love: Fiction, Attachment, Reality

45m · Fearless Knowledge · 02 Oct 20:00

"In this episode, I'll be sharing an interesting story on how I ran into Jason Silva, the popular American-Venezuelan modern philosopher and social media speaker on Amsterdam's streets! Our conversation on the fear of abandonment led me to ask whether the fear of love has become an epidemic in our modern Western societies? Or perhaps fearful love has reached a climax since the advent of marriage for love in the Victorian period? Maybe fearful love is what Jane Austen was actually talking about in the under layers of her characters, disguised as 'pride' and 'prejudice'.

Lately, I've been doing a crash course in a psychology theory called Attachment Theory, which aims to answer why we may become fearful of love and intimacy. So, just for fun, I examine a few of Jane Austen's characters from this lens.

And Ali, in his usual deep metaphorical and political style, makes the connection between attachment theory and Austen's characters and asks whether we see the 'avoidant' Mr. Darcy everywhere in our corporate, political and professional spaces!

And ultimately, how does one become a secure or 'fearless lover' in all aspects of life?

Enjoy and share the word about Fearless Knowledge!

Fearlessly yours,
Tania and Ali

Episode 11: Understanding Leadership in 2021 [Part 1/3]

So, already in January 2021, the world is buzzing with conversations on leadership. And it's ABOUT TIME! Because leadership is one of the most important topics of emotional intelligence! This episode is the first of 2021 but also the 1st part of a series to come on leadership, which also happens to be shared on the inauguration of US President, Joe Biden and days after the attack on the US Senate.

Ali and I ask tough questions here as we explore becoming clear on what leadership truly means and why we may lack many "good leaders". We think 2021 is calling on each and every one of us to look internally and act externally with a clear and complete understanding of leadership, especially as we head slowly out of the pandemic and return to 'normal'. Can we look forward to leadership grounded in emotional and social intelligence?

*WARNING: Profanity alert! Ali and I swear a fair bit here as we record absolutely live and unedited. You get to hear the real and passionate Ali and Tania ;)

Thank you for listening, following, and sharing this episode and podcast series.
Made for you, with love!

Fearlessly yours,
Tania & Ali
