Speaker 1: Hi, there, just to say This is a short snippet
Speaker 1: from this week's main episode, which was published on Wednesday.
Speaker 1: As always, if you want the full episode, you can
Speaker 1: find it just below this one. I want to mention
Speaker 1: something about the transition into post conventional just before we
Speaker 1: talk about what post conventional levels look like. Specifically, the
Speaker 1: transition can be very destabilizing because listen, we've got pre
Speaker 1: conventional levels, we've got conventional levels, and we've got post
Speaker 1: conventional levels. So when you're moving into post conventional, it's
Speaker 1: not just that you're changing a stage. You're not just
Speaker 1: moving out of orange rational, a level that we spoke
Speaker 1: about in detail last week. It's not just that you're
Speaker 1: moving out of orange rational. It's that you're actually moving
Speaker 1: out of the conventional metal level of development. And that
Speaker 1: sounds very abstract, but what does it mean it The
Speaker 1: person you are becoming is not a person that is
Speaker 1: supported by your the're conventional surroundings, like your family probably
Speaker 1: won't understand what's happening to you. You're if you've got
Speaker 1: conventional friends, they probably won't understand what's happening to you.
Speaker 1: If you've got conventional colleagues, they won't really understand what's
Speaker 1: happening to you so you can It can be very destabilizing.
Speaker 1: You might even you might, like in severe cases, start
Speaker 1: think that you're going crazy because what happens for a
Speaker 1: while is it's there's a big uprooting of orange rational,
Speaker 1: So you're you're sort of getting stripped of all your
Speaker 1: orange rational stuff or rational achiever we should call it.
Speaker 1: And then you're kind of left. You're you've been stripped,
Speaker 1: and then you're slowly getting installed with post conventional world views, motivations, values,
Speaker 1: and so on. And during that phase of stripping and installing,
Speaker 1: there's not it's not stable yet, so you're not really
Speaker 1: you're not stably at conventional or post conventional. You're short
Speaker 1: of in the limbo. And so it's sort of a
Speaker 1: time where if if you yourself are doubtful about what's
Speaker 1: happening and you're looking for others to help you understand
Speaker 1: what is happening, chances are they're not going to get
Speaker 1: you right. So it can be pretty lonely. It can
Speaker 1: be confusing, it can feel like you've kind of your
Speaker 1: life is like it's taking a turn for the worst. Now, listen,
Speaker 1: there's no there's no guarantee that it will be like
Speaker 1: this for you. Maybe you suddenly move into an environment
Speaker 1: where everyone is post conventional and it's like join the party. Well,
Speaker 1: in that case, be destabilizing, probably, but it might be
Speaker 1: a lot easier than it would be for someone else.
Speaker 1: But just know that these these transitions can be very destabilizing,
Speaker 1: and not to over idealize them, because I feel like
Speaker 1: people do over idealize them. It's like, Oh, I'm moving
Speaker 1: into post conventional. That must be so great and so
Speaker 1: expansive and all of this, But no, what you're actually
Speaker 1: losing your mind in a way and you're gaining a
Speaker 1: new mind. Is like that is literally kind of what's
Speaker 1: happening to you. Hi, there, just to say. This is
Speaker 1: a short snippet from this week's main episode, which was
Speaker 1: published on Wednesday. As always, if you want the full episode,
Speaker 1: you can find it just below this one.
