Listen "001 - The Captain's Hat: The Power of Self-Sourcing"
Episode Synopsis
You are not your emotions, sensations, thoughts or body. You're not the things that have happened to you or will happen. So who are you?
In this episode, Lora and Jeff dive into the concept of self-sourcing - the ability to connect with your true essence beyond emotions, trauma, and external influences.
Through storytelling, symbolism, and relatable conversation, we explore:
- What it means to self-source and why it matters
- How emotions and past experiences can cloud our sense of identity
- The role of compassion, curiosity, and mindfulness in finding our way back to ourselves
- How cultural conditioning shapes (and can distort) our self-perception
- Practical ways to reconnect with your essence in everyday life
In our opening story, our adventurer continues his journey at sea, discovering an old captain's hat in his pack - a symbol of the steady, true self that has always been with him.
