Wow!
First of all, thank you for processing through all that on your podcast. Antonia, you gave your parents a gift, and the amount of love, clarity of vision, patience, and empathy it took to give that , I imagine, was emmence.
You also gave us, your listeners a gift. To hear you, Joel and Antonia, process through a very weight and difficult concept was intense ; I feel like my brain is re-wiring itself.
I am an ENTP and an enneagram 7, so my go to strategy is to rationalize, reframe, and navigate away from negative emotion. When you were discussing processing emotion by finding it (through Hoden’s entimology ) and then callibrating the emotion was mind blowing!! ??
I’ve been trying to figure out how to process all the emotional stuff I carry from my recent experience with breast cancer and have been struggling with how to let myself feel all the feelings but still feel safe. This exercise is changing the way I’m viewing processing negative emotion.
Thank you.
Sorry – just as a clarification, the part that seems counterintuitive to me is that the sensory deprivation almost seems like a way to cut yourself off from flow without replacing it with anything. What’s positive in that situation for you?
Please know you are incredibly inspiring, as joel said, and I felt no bias in your perspective of your story. I also agree that this was so powerful and dare I say self sacraficing. I have an extreme respect for both of you and I will honestly say you very well have saved my sanity if not my life altogether. I also have inadvertently spurred progress, growth, and positivity to those around me which has absolutely blown my mind. This so powerful yet, in reality is such a simple life saving concept, has being an amazing experience and has been amazing and so fun. My brain zings with you guys. Im an INTP female, my SO is an INTP Male so that in itself should be enough explanation of the circumstances i was unaware needed to be addressed.
Your boundary breaking, risk taking, higher consciousness journey is so brave so authentic to me that I will never have enough words to express my gratitude, respect and this weird celebrity-like super fan feeling for your life journeys. You’ve been able to provide that key that unlocks a lot of repressed thinking and it has answered so many questions, pushed me to face my immature habits, and let me finally not be afraid to be myself.
Antonia, with this new found peace and the specific words you made sure to leave with them I’m confident that they will always ring in their thoughts and certain memory triggered activities. I firmly believe there may be more to come because you were willing to respect and accept their choice. The universe sees that and the universe will give you what you give others and I hope you receive the outward recognition of respect from the ones we are programmed to love the most. You guys rock! #keepfightingthegoodfight

Wow..that was very powerful and moving. It was very touching. Thank you for sharing your heart.
Hi Antonia – This is only tangentially related to the topic at hand – and I also want to lend my support and congratulations for doing what you did – but I noticed at one point you talked about sensory deprivation being great and therapeutic for you.
Now, as an INFJ that sounds incredible for me. But I’m trying to figure out how this wasn’t torture for you. I mean, I know you guys have mentioned how extraversion in this sense is more about outer world feedback and how it isn’t purely a social thing, and also how extraverts need alone time periodically as well. But I’m still a bit unsure as to how that manifests itself in your mind.
I have an ulterior motive in that I’m writing a novel from the POV of someone who is kind of the textbook definition of an ENTP, so it is paaaartly research… but I’m also genuinely curious how that feels – it seems like such a hardcore Ni space to inhabit, wouldn’t this cost you energy instead of giving it back?
