Let’s face it: Life is a constant mess of contradictions. Freedom feels great… until it leaves you with a heap of regret. Love makes you feel like you’re on top of the world… right before it takes you down a peg (or ten). In our latest Alchemy Podcast episode, Tim and LeeAnna dive headfirst into some of the most mind-boggling human paradoxes: freedom vs. control, love’s highest highs and lowest lows, and all the emotional chaos in between. Get ready for a wild ride of snark, bad decisions, and surprisingly insightful moments (we promise, they’re in there somewhere).
Here’s a paradox for you: the less we try to sell you, the more you’ll want to stick around. Weird, right? No annoying ads. No cheesy pitches. Just raw, unfiltered Alchemy. We don’t need to shove stuff down your throat to keep you hooked. Because, let’s face it, who needs more ads in their life? So, enjoy the chaos, the contradictions, and the endless contradictions. It’s the least we could do, considering we’re not trying to sell you anything. Except maybe our weird, wild perspectives on life.
The Paradox of Love: A Historical Exploration of Western Philosophical Perspectives on Love, Exclusion, and Liberatory Potential. By David Berman.
