Hidden Brain · Waking Up Your Spiritual Brain: Part 2 · 6 Jul 2026 podcast

If she needs money, I would agree with her.

One novel is probably not the way to get that.

So let's go get a job and then maybe you can write short stories on the side.

But you've got to do some radical acceptance about that.

If your husband's fine with supporting you, are you willing to do the hard thing called accepting a gift?

So it's all about acceptance and living in reality.

Well, particularly in the form of what is the meaning of my life, which sounds like there's an answer.

You know, in Bill, my partner and I, our shortest definition of the human person anthropologically is that a person is a becoming person.

We are all an unfolding, embodied spiritual intelligence, a very complicated being called a human person.

And we're always growing into our future selves.

So if the future me isn't here yet, how could my present me ever come up with one answer that is reliable for the rest of my life?

So we're saying, how can I design more meaning in the life that I'm in now?

So don't get stuck on trying to come up with the ultimate answer.

And in both cases here, by the way, both John Charles and Sumeya have a point of view about what meaning has to be.

In John Charles' case, there's an unspoken assumption about his relationship with the work world that he didn't realize.

And for Sumeya, it's about money and meaning making.

And so they've got little rules buried in their questions that are forcing them into a stuck place because they want they want it on their terms, frankly.

And those terms aren't working.

And so if we can reset to reality, here's the situation you're actually in.

That gives you some freedom to go forward to the place you can go, which may not be the place you want to go, but it is the place you can go.
