So DID I ever hit someone?

Livestream 4 Jun 2023

My father kept in close contact with his verbally abusive mother until the end of her life. I could see this slowly wear him down over the years

Catcher in the Rye, JD Salinger

OK, but what if your secret is that you have been with a dozen prostitutes? I am still puzzling over that one. What's the golden ratio in honesty?

The devil says sin is no big deal before you do it and then afterward he says it completely defines you

Stef, What would be an example of someone who hides their past in order to get a relationship, in this context.

Your shows are really helping me turn my life around, I am starting to make so many good decisions and not engage in any destructive behaviour and I have just started dating a real quality women. Thank you

Here, is a harder question. for the example of body count, is it possible for this kind of reform, and growth possible.

Stef I’m sorry, but you mentioned you hit your mother when you were a young teen. I understand this was in self defense but I believe this is a contradiction of hitting someone

No you said you had not hit someone. You added fist fight after. I just thought it was curious.

I stated I was sorry I understood where you were coming from and it was in self defense, I know why you did it and I had opportunities when I was younger too. But did not.

You had not gone into detail about the hitting in your previous stream. The word just caught my attention as you mentioned you had never hit someone. So I think it’s a choice of words.

My dearest apologies that my messages are coming across as uncompassionate, I do not know how to communicate it over text.

But I started with I’m sorry and you took it the wrong way.

Thank you Stefan, you know how valuable this show is. I'm only just beginning to see how truly valuable it is, especially since I started working out regularly, going to therapy and journaling.

This stream has been great Stef, Thank You. I wish to be more like you, I may start going to therapy twice a week despite how pricy that can be it helps a lot. Once a week doesn't seem like it's enough, like exercising only once a week.

It's interesting how UPB is sort of automatic for kids. As soon as you do something for one the others say, "What about me?"

What do I do about Father’s Day after basically not speaking to him because he is the epitome of a narcissist?

Do you think it’s harder to peacefully parent, multiple children, interactions-Sibling fighting? I know you did very very well with a single child.

I am going to a speed dating event tonight (one of the many things I am currently trying). Any suggestions about topics of conversation? I got a few in mind, but I am really open to suggestions.

could you do a rough timeline of how you got to where you are now in life? What where some of your biggest life changing moments/lessons. Over the years you've shared a lot of life lessons and experiences. From working in a hardware shop fixing screen doors (while not knowing how to) from times gold panning, theatre school, business experience, an almost marriage, books you've read over the years, starting a podcasts cause why not?

I Had Kids with the Wrong Woman! Listener Questions

In this episode, I tackle audience questions, starting with George St. Peterson's role in the Russia-Ukraine war and the importance of diverse opinions. I discuss the potential resurgence of Christianity in the West, emphasizing the need to apply rationality to moral discussions.

I explore the influence of childhood experiences on ethics and offer insights on co-parenting with an irresponsible partner, stressing the social context of relationship choices. Additionally, I analyze how welfare programs impact family dynamics and accountability and confront the complexities of free speech in incendiary contexts.

Finally, I reflect on originality in thought-sharing and encourage critical engagement with ideas amid widespread misinformation, expressing gratitude for the audience's support in navigating these discussions together.

NEW PREVIEW FOR SUPPORTERS - HELP STEF I HAVE NO FRIENDS! FREEDOMAIN CALL IN SHOW

Subscribers get early previews for shows!

"Hi Stef! My name is [x] and I've been listening to your show for a couple years now, my husband introduced it to me shortly after we got married. I've really enjoyed learning about philosophy and self-knowledge and have been applying it to my marriage and other relationship queries. I was hoping to talk to you about some struggles I've had maintaining relationships (friendships) throughout my life. I've never had a local friendship last more than a few years. I'm about to continue my self-knowledge work by going to a Christian group therapy (Freedom session) and I was told I would need a sponsor (a friend or relation) to closely connect with for these group sessions. It occurred to me that I don't have any close friends and no one I could ask (besides my husband). To me that is alarming. I feel as though I should have at least one long term close friendship. My husband and I talk about this often - how I often have difficulties maintaining friendships. I've ...
