This episode of 'The Slog Pod' addresses the feeling of powerlessness, particularly the insidious kind that arises in everyday situations such as work, relationships, and society. The hosts discuss how powerlessness stems from awareness hitting a wall, which is not always external, sometimes originating in our minds. They differentiate powerlessness from helplessness, introducing concepts like learned helplessness, internalized gaslighting, and moral injury. They share anecdotal examples from work and life to illustrate these feelings and discuss strategies to combat them. These include naming the feeling, seeking areas of influence, avoiding self-blame, and engaging in small acts of integrity. The hosts emphasize the importance of sharing these feelings to enter supportive systems and encourage listeners to participate by sharing their own experiences and strategies. [email protected]
