-
Joel reviews the causes and themes behind our growing search and need for ‘identity’ as individuals – and the potential trajectory of this phenomenon.
- How disruptive technologies and the digital age, and platforms shape this.

-
The role personality type plays in understanding our individual identity – and why it can be a safe space, removed from the pitfalls of belief systems.

Congrats on 300!! As ever, I appreciate the two of you holding space for each other within the medium of the podcast to articulate your individual and collective ideas.
I’m wondering where you see the role of folks who are familiar with a religious framework (raised within or directly adjacent to, etc.) but who hold pretty loosely to its dogma? Or who have self-selected to take a hiatus from participating in some of those communities? You’ve both acknowledged that you have distanced yourselves from the religious communities of your youth, though you’ve integrated some of the positive take-aways and tools. At least, that’s my understanding from your descriptions.
If we consider some current frameworks and/or technologies that exude cult(ish) energy — including Facebook — where do those platforms fit into the larger landscape of infusing “good juju” into the type community? Are there alternatives worth considering? Or does the overall benefit of reaching a broader audience online outweigh the somewhat unhealthy, loneliness-inducing aspects of contemporary online platforms? I don’t delude myself that I have the answers…
I think about this often in the context of parenting. Where is the tipping point (if there is such a thing) regarding guidance you might give to your kids about building a community online while also being mindful of biases or unintended consequences?
