All four of her books are Stanford University Press top sellers of the last decade. But here, she turns that same rigorous curiosity on herself.\nShe shares the moment she realised her deepest values - generosity and curiosity - have their own shadows. She unpacks the concept of values as polarities, why rigid adherence to a single value leaves the whole system weak, and how she learned to hold temporary certainty without pretending to have all the answers.\nIf you're interested in personal growth, leadership, values, conscious living, philosophy of life, intentional community, or a good life, this episode is for you.\nFor more from Jennifer Garvey Berger:\nCompany Website: www.cultivatingleadership.com\nBooks:\nUnleash Your Complexity Genius: https://www.sup.org/books/business/unleash-your-complexity-genius\nChanging on the Job: https://www.sup.org/books/business/changing-job-second-edition\nLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jennifer-garvey-berger-7b4a264/\nFor more from Mark McCartney:\nNewsletter: https://www.whatisagood.life/\nWebsite: https://www.mmcleadership.com/\nLinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/mark-mccartney-14b0161b4/\nYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/ ⁨@whatisagoodlife3875⁩  \n00:02  A Question Worth Following\n01:31  Closing the Values Gap\n04:01  When Values Cast Shadows\n08:53  Generosity and Curiosity's Dark Side\n13:02  Shame and the Human Condition\n16:29  Learning to Take Stands\n18:49  Standing for Love\n23:19  Certainty at Sea\n26:21  Time, Physics and Reality\n33:39  Rising to Love\n38:05  The Intentional Community\n50:28  What Is A Good...","thumbnail_url":"https://img.transistorcdn.com/bmT8FMFAsdpL8YpCcl1-OrgjJf3IhVZ_KJftDu8Wgy8/rs:fill:0:0:1/w:400/h:400/q:60/mb:500000/aHR0cHM6Ly9pbWct/dXBsb2FkLXByb2R1/Y3Rpb24udHJhbnNp/c3Rvci5mbS9zaG93/LzM3NDg2LzE2NzI4/MzUxMDgtYXJ0d29y/ay5qcGc.webp","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300}
