I don’t mean to watch TV news. But many news headlines from different channels pop up in RUclips. I just read the headlines but don’t watch the clip. I especially stay away from any news about war. I don’t trust any of the news media. I remember how they lied about weapons of mass destruction that led to the Iraq War.
WOW. I loved this episode and it’s exactly what I needed to listen to. Thank you so much for quoting Terence McKenna, whom I’ve never heard of (I’m French). This is such an empowering message. I love you guys (and did since the very beginning). Nana.
Wow. This is just phenomenal. Really making me take a look at myself, my news consumption and how it affects me. I've shared the video with multiple friends and family members. Thank you!
Since 2020 I’ve been searching for some good news that will put my mind at rest so I can relax knowing things are going to be ok. But for the last two years there hasn’t been much good news so I stay on high alert and keep searching. I keep questioning whether there is something I could do to bring about positive change but the reality is I’d be better off trying to get tasks that affect my family directly done rather than trying to change the state of the world. However in saying that, there have been many times historically that resulted in atrocities for large numbers of people and maybe those could have been avoided or mitigated if people had been more proactive in speaking out in the community and less concerned about their immediate ‘circle of influence’. (If not me then who, if not now - then when?). But it seems only a few talented and knowledgeable people are able to do that effectively, the rest of us flounder around trying to keep up with the ever changing bad news and consequently also manage our anxiety and as a result get even less done in our lives than usual.
I need to create my own roadshow. I used to be so caught up with admiration of influencers on youtube and I wanted to be like them. But then I realized most of it was smoke and mirrors. I used to think my own life wasn't important compared to theirs. But my life and the life of the people I know is what's real, not a couple of instagram photos showing the best parts of influencers' life.
Not to mention, soooo much of it is lies. So what info are you really “catching up on”? It’s not real. You CAN prepare for a food shortage ;) just sayin’
How often do you watch the news?

Imagine, I am listening to you just before going to sleep, to calm down and get intellectually relaxed. Thank you so much.
We become addicted to chaos and drama. We get dopamine from it.
Wow TK, your insights made me think. That essay you read about social media and the here and now is stunning.
I was absolutely shocked by the lightning round intro! Hahaha 😂 No pun intended.
That lightning round intro was really fun
What a great perspective!! Will be focusing more on my life and fulfillment and letting go of the things of this world!
Impressed with the Terence Mckenna quote. Someone new and wise to look up!
TK!!! Always on point!! Nice and well done!
Can you make a short on what TJ says at about 12:50 so it can be shareable?
I turned off the news a few years ago! It’s all sensationalized

I needed to hear this. Thank you!

Thanks for the warning 👍😁
a great book on real fear is 'The Gift of Fear by Gavin DeBecker' - he also has several RUclips appearances.
Information is worse than nothing when it's propaganda.
