Feasting Friday


I've really fallen in love with notion recently, so this week's newsletter is here (with pictures and videos).

Song I'm Listening on Repeat:

Unapologetically, I can't stop playing Big Dawgs

Art I've Enjoyed:

Alex Hormozi x Christopher Williamson

As someone with psychological training and who geeked out on Behaviorism, I think Hormozi is in the top .01% of people alive who understand the profound wisdom in the psychological paradigm that dominated psychology for half a century.

What he calls 'operationalize it' is a cognitive superpower (with some blindspots so be careful lol)

Book I'm Reading:

Recommended to me by a subscriber (thank you!), I started reading Boudica: Book 1.

Every week, I bring the best of what I've gathered. Enjoy the feast.

All the games we play are...

Idk how this happened but we’re gunna talk about prophets and prophecy. To set the stage, lets check in with the Jungians. Erich Neumann, jungian psychoanalyst and someone Jung openly admitted explained the unconscious more clearly than Jung himself ever did, describes three levels of development humans grow through. Neumann called these stages: The Mother Stage The Father Stage The Individuation Stage Because of reasons I’ll share another time, I’ll be calling them: Lv. 1: The Realm of the...

I've changed my mind (Caitlyn gets the credit). I, Erick Godsey, the eternal skeptic amongst my friends, believes we're in a spiritual war. This is a very big deal for me. To understand why, first we gotta talk about conspiracy theories. Everyone who knows me knows that I will argue with you about conspiracies. It's not that I don't believe in conspiracies. I do. People conspire. What I argue against is the cosmology people implicitly smuggle into the conversation. There are two points I try...
