Awakening: Why We Waited 150 Episodes to Talk About It

Awakening is one of those words that gets thrown around a lot, but what does it actually mean? In this episode, Brett and Joe finally tackle the topic head-on after 150 episodes of addressing it indirectly. They explore why awakening isn't a goal in the Art of Accomplishment work, what actually happens when people wake up, and why it might be both far bigger and far smaller than you imagine. They discuss: - What awakening actually is (and isn't) - Head, heart, and gut awakenings, and how they differ - Why making awakening a goal can slow down the process - The myth that awakening is a finish line - How meditation can be a path to enlightenment or a tool for dissociation - Why awakened people still have daddy issues - What to do if awakening catches you off guard
