Navigating the modern world feels chaotic, especially when it comes to understanding our roles. This episode explores how past societal shifts have impacted the way men see themselves and their place in the world today.
Today, Jared Archbold and I, Jon Symes, dig into some serious stuff. We talk about our loss of spiritual connection, how modern governance has shaped behaviors, and why empathy gets sidelined in a patriarchal culture. We explore the transition from natural coexistence to institutional control, examining both men’s gains and losses in this shift. And hey, we’re also hinting at what’s coming up next – the tough questions about who we are and why we follow certain societal norms.
Jared opens up about his discomfort with how we’ve drifted from a spiritual connection to a more institutionalized view of it. We’ve lost touch with the natural world and our empathy, something men really need to thrive. On my end, I discuss how governance and distant powers have distorted our ability to coexist, leading to a culture dominated by men and, unfortunately, at the expense of women. Both of us agree there’s a narrative at play here, shaping our daily interactions without clear heroes or villains, just people navigating a corrupted culture.
If you’re ready to question societal norms and find a way out of a culture that’s thrown us off balance, tune in. And don’t forget to subscribe so you don’t miss our future episodes.
