This Sunday Wendy guided a discussion which revolved around the idea of Personas and the sense of self. The central theme was being able to exist in roles and experience the world without being caught up in one “self” or another. That is, to still have an ego, but to recognize it and be able to see it with some perspective.
The discussion was formed around two talks, one by Pascal Auclair here:
