About this listen
There’s a saying: The fish doesn’t know it’s in water.
In this episode of Reality Inverted, we explore the invisible paradigms that surround us—shaping our families, workplaces, culture, and even the way we think about ourselves.
These paradigms aren’t just big societal systems like physicalism—they’re the everyday assumptions that define what we believe is possible. Things like:
-
Love = obedience
-
Worth = productivity
-
Success = status
-
Truth = what the experts say
Most of these beliefs were formed before age 7. They’ve become the water we swim in—the lenses we look through without realizing it.
We’ll explore:
-
How paradigms show up in families, workplaces, and culture
-
The neuroscience behind subconscious beliefs
-
Real-life stories that reveal how these paradigms drive behavior
-
An introduction to systems thinking and why paradigm shifts are the deepest form of change
This episode is an invitation to notice the water—not to escape it, but to see it clearly.
