It's a new year & I'll be rolling out a slew of new extras to patrons of the pod, including a brand new *unscripted* solo series that I'm calling: Subject To Change. I'll be dropping Patreon-exclusive videos like this one every so often, using this platform to respond to listener questions, share personal stories, and give you a behind the scenes peek into the soul-stretching labor pains that go into podcast production. Speaking of... first...
"Pay no attention to the man behind the curtain... my whole life was that way. How dare you... how dare you question." - Stacy Parish It's time for another episode of Deconstructing Dogma & this week I welcome a returning guest to the pod. Stacy Parish was on the main feed back in March 2023; and sidenote: we didn't plan it this way, but it's ALSO #50... only on the main feed 🤓. Anyway, check it out if you missed it! It's a convo that...
QUICK & IMPORTANT UPDATE >> After taking six weeks off from the main feed of the pod, I've come to realize two things: 1) sometimes when I want to cut&run, all I really need is an open-ended breather... and 2) the 'cult'ure series ain't over yet! I'm not sure how much longer I'll carry on, but I've decided to keep tending the fire awhile longer. Folks just keep showing up for amazing conversations - and in solidarity with this...
Hi y'all. I'd initially planned on saving this two-part conversation until after the 'cult'ure series wraps. But I've since decided to go ahead and roll it out now, because friendship and belly laughs are always helpful around the holidays. Long time good friend of the pod, Monica Welty, joins Tracy & I for a two-part 'cult'ure series recap, and the three of us reflect on two-plus years podcasting & how the ‘cult’ure series in...
Next week, we'll be featuring another guest convo here. It's an insightful two-parter & we really can't wait to share it with you! In the meantime... Have you been wondering what happened with Episode #74? 🤷♀️ Why I deleted it right before it was scheduled to drop? If so, you'll wanna check out this week’s episode of Deconstructing Dogma. We recorded dd #47 on November 14th, when I was still in the writing/production phase on...
First I just want to say to ALL of you out there... whether you tune into DD bonus episodes or not... without your support, I simply would not have been able to carry this work forward. I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart for your monthly donations! And fyi, I'm still hoping to wrap the 'cult'ure series before the new year, and I quite literally wouldn't have it in me to power forward without you. We're back with another episode of...
Tracy & I are back with another episode of Deconstructing Dogma. This week, we dig into the research of Dr. Robert Cialdini and his book Influence: The Psychology of Persuasion. Some consider it a research-based marketing manual for folks looking to close the deal, but it's also an insightful deconstruction of how exactly persuasion leads to the loss of personal agency... and the sorts of dynamics we've been talking about over the course of...
As promised, we going to keep dropping extras here on Patreon. And if you're new to the platform, be sure to circle back & check out the DD episode line-up pinned to the top of the Patreon main page that outlines the 40+ earlier episodes you currently have to choose from.Here's the haps this week:dd #44 - 'Off Ramp' >> Cognitive Dissonance: What It Is & Why It's Such A ThingMy guests & I have been dropping the term cognitive...
"But when the economy is based on many women who are willing to do it for nothing, that becomes standard... And if I'm going to invest my energy, I want to get an income from it." - Adi Gorendd #43 - The Queen & The Pyramid: Behind The Scenes of 'the Org' Economy - Bonus Convo w/ Adi GorenAs promised on the main feed (see Ep.72), it's a one-hour Deconstructing Dogma bonus follow-up with Adi Goren!
