101: We're Back
Manage episode 520887764 series 2885005
After an 18-month break, a rebrand, a move across countries, a wedding, a baby, and a whole lot of growing up, we’re back on the mics - this time as Sensemaking with Wolé and Tobi.
If you’ve been with us for a while, the name probably won’t surprise you as it’s what we’ve always quietly been doing on this show: trying to make sense of a world that feels familiar and unpredictable at the same time.
Work, relationships, cost of living, identity shifts… and now AI headlines, changing definitions of home, and the pressure to choose wisely and stay sane in the middle of it all.
Underneath the life updates, there’s a bigger “wicked problem” we’re trying to make sense of: How do you keep making sense of your life when everything keeps changing - your city, your work, your relationships, the tech you use - and you’re stuck between overthinking and actually doing?
This is what Sensemaking is for.
Formally, it’s the process of giving meaning to experience. Informally, it’s psychological survival - a way of keeping chaos from taking over.
This podcast is our modest attempt to engage in that process: earnestly, imperfectly, and out loud. And this time, it won’t just be our voices.
We want to hear you: your reflections, your questions, your confusions, your hard-won insights. Fewer guests, more community. Because the antidote to isolation is shared attention, and the path forward is rarely walked alone.
If you’ve been with us since 20s Convos or The Yellow Pill, this episode is a welcome-back hug.
If you’re new, this is the perfect place to start.
Welcome to Sensemaking. Let’s bring order to the chaos, one conversation at a time.
