Adult development isn’t tied to a specific age, many people spend their lives on autopilot in an adolescent phase, true adulthood means developing a self-authored mind: questioning your unconscious assumptions and choosing for yourself what you want out of life.

Ah man, wish I was there for this one. Looking forward to watching. Biographically it’s right up my alley.
In this Interintellect SuperSalon, psychologist and author @drvantongeren joined our founder @TheAnnaGat for a conversation about the search for meaning and purpose after leaving religion.
They explored the psychological challenges of moving beyond traditional belief systems, how people navigated uncertainty in the absence of established religious frameworks, and what it took to rebuild a sense of meaning and fulfillment in an increasingly secular world.

What an honor to attend this ❤️
Lea Ypi hosted by Irina Dumitrescu -- on Interintellect
What a remarkable Supersalon we had with @lea_ypi and Irina Dumitrescu, exploring "Indignity: A Life Reimagined" and the tangled relationship between family memory, historical truth, and political history.
From secret service archives to the intimate stories that shape our understanding of the past, we reflected on the dignity of those who came before us and the responsibility of telling their stories.
Thank you to Lea, Irina, and everyone who joined us for this memorable evening.📚️❤️
