In this episode, Gregg is joined by Vivian Dittmar. Vivian is an author, wisdom teacher and founder of the Be the Change Foundation. She has a diverse background that includes experiences in traditional cultures, Far Eastern philosophy, and shamanic traditions, outlines a framework differentiating physical sensations, biological instincts, social feelings, unprocessed emotions, and transcendent abilities. She emphasizes practices that help process difficult emotions to develop wisdom rather than escape into spiritual bypassing. In this episode, she describes her framework for the emotional backpack and healthy, conscious release. Gregg reflects on how this aligns with UTOK’s model of human consciousness and the unified approach to psychotherapy.

In this episode, Gregg is joined by Faisal Mahbouba. Gregg connected with Faisal after Faisal reached out to learn more about UTOK. Faisal is a seeker. He connected with John Vervaeke’s work and then learned about Gregg’s work and found much synergy with his own thinking. As Gregg and Faisal talked more, Gregg learned of Faisal’s talent with words and artistic expression. Especially remarkable was how Faisal expressed his ideas and tied those together with deep theoretical and philosophical insights into the human condition. This episode shares how Faisal came to develop this capacity and shares with the audience some pieces he crafted. Faisal will be sharing more of his work during the UTOK 2024 Consilience Conference, in a symposium titled UTOK and Art, on Friday, April 12th, at 3:00 pm ET.
