The Downfall of Naivety

In this episode of the Straight-Line Podcast, hosts Johan, Mandy van der Put, and Kristof Cuppens discuss the newsletter “Observations in Conflict.” They shine a light on an area many would rather avoid: the stories you tell yourself and others because you want to believe that everything is as it should be.

How easily do you let yourself be fooled by assumptions and signs that seem too good to be true? And how often do you put on a “show” for others, instead of just telling it like it is?

The hosts explain why it’s essential to observe clearly and ask for the facts, without being influenced by what you hope or fear to discover. An episode that challenges, provokes, and invites you to reflect honestly on your own relationships and decisions.
