ABOUT THIS EPISODE
Wanting is one of our most powerful levers for change. Not what you want, but your relationship to wanting itself. In this episode, Joe sits down with AOA facilitator Alexa Kistler to unpack why so many people are at war with their desires and how ending that war offers a path out of suffering.
They discuss:
- Wanting, craving, and aversion
- Childhood patterns that take us away from wanting
- Identity shifts when you allow yourself to want
- How not owning desire makes you more manipulable, not less
- Why chasing outcomes creates suffering, even when you succeed
