How To Have More Power In Your Relationships‪!‬ Jason Ingber

This episode explores the themes of living explicitly beyond societal norms, personal freedom, and relationships through the insights of your host, Los Angeles attorney Jason Ingber, and therapist Rachel Feldman, coupled with a personal narrative on self-acceptance versus societal conformity. Jason shares his path to liberation through intentional deviation from societal expectations, influenced by Rachel's expertise in narrative therapy, medical sociology, human rights, and post-structuralism, which emphasizes the importance of authenticity and vulnerability. Together, they examine the therapeutic power of living with intentionality, the pressures of societal conformity, and the courage required to embrace personal truths. Additionally, a reflective monologue touches on the journey from self-policing to self-acceptance, outlining the transition from nihilism to conviction, and underlining the significance of each personal choice against the backdrop of societal expectations. This episode invites listeners to consider explicit communication and self-awareness as avenues to a more dignified, self-determined, and less oppressed life.
