Today, I'm chatting with you about the fact that I’ve been processing a ton of new information in my brain these past weeks as a result of really trying to educate myself in detail about the situation in Palestine, and how it relates to my previously held worldview. And, like many people I know, this new information is causing me to examine the world in new and often challenging ways that might bump up against at least some of what I had previously believed to be true. But, in many ways, a lot of questions were answered for me in this revelation, questions that I had never felt empowered to ask...until now.

So, I wanted to use this episode to explore the concept of ontological shock, which is a term used to describe the idea of what a human experiences when they learn something new about the world that completely changes the way they view it moving forward for the rest of their lives. I’ll also discuss critical thinking, and how to deal with a massive paradigm shift in your life.
