My Existentialism Story, What's a Narrative Identity?, Why I đź‘Ž Advice (+ refuse to say "frown lines")
Tuesday, 26 October, 2021
In this second episode of Existennial I explain my strong 👎of giving general life advice. (How-to's like how to layer rugs, keep a baby alive or pair wine with curry are guidance I appreciate.) I then talk about why I much prefer sharing ideas and sparking stuff for people with STORIES. I quote a Spanish philosopher's thoughts on being a teacher and then recap a smart psychologist's studies on "narrative identity," --> basically whether you're aware or not, we're each stringing snippets of our life together so our existence at least makes a little sense and isn't just some random series of events. Yeah, we go high brow. After that, I storytell my personal narrative ie. what happened with my [most recent] existential crisis. I wrap with some strong opinions on cheese, a major warning about The Bachelor Franchise, and a paraphrase of Neil Patrick Harris. I hope you find value in this!
