189 - The One You Feed

NOAH RASHETA
About this episode

Welcome to a unique episode where I'm excited to share the audio of a thought-provoking conversation I recently had with Eric Zimmer, the esteemed host of "The One You Feed" podcast. In this compelling discussion, we delve into the ancient parable of the two wolves that reside within each of us, exploring the profound wisdom behind the teaching that the wolf you choose to nourish ultimately prevails.


Our dialogue centres on the complex topic of suffering, but we also traverse a range of interconnected concepts that shed light on the human experience. This special episode offers a rare opportunity to eavesdrop on an unscripted, in-depth exchange of ideas that I believe you'll find both enlightening and engaging.


So, settle in and prepare for an intellectual journey as we unpack age-old wisdom and apply it to modern life. I'm confident that this unique episode will provide you with fresh perspectives and valuable insights. Enjoy the discussion!
