Shaking Up Beliefs: A Conversation with Vik Maraj

Episode Overview

  • Vik Maraj shares his journey from childhood to his work in different parts of the world
  • Exploring the dangers of questioning and the weight of shared agreements
  • Emphasizing the need to confront suppressed expectations and unresolved emotions in relationships
Our work is the work of inquiry. And as one of my coaches said to me one time, Vic, you got to get something about the nature of inquiries. Inquiries are dangerous. He said, that's why over history, people banned inquiry.
What happens when you challenge everything you think you know? In this episode of 'Empathetic Witness', Angelina Pratt sits down with Vik Maraj, the President and Co-founder of Unstoppable Conversations, to explore just that. Recorded on unceded Algonquin territory, this chat dives deep into the transformative power of questioning our inherited beliefs and the impact they have on our lives.
Vik Maraj shares his fascinating journey from his childhood in Guyana to his impactful work around the globe, including with Indigenous communities. His insights are both brave and authentic, touching on how our deeply ingrained beliefs can hold us back from truly thriving. Through their conversation, you'll hear about the essence of 'Inquiry' and why it's crucial to question not just the world around us, but our own thoughts and assumptions.
The discussion also delves into the limitations imposed by living within a certain paradigm and the importance of taking responsibility for our beliefs. It's about breaking down these mental barriers to achieve genuine transformation. Maraj's approach is not just theoretical; it's a call to action to confront our suppressed expectations and unresolved emotions, especially within our relationships.
If you're ready to shake things up and see your world through a new lens, this episode offers a powerful perspective on how to start that journey. Whether you're dealing with addiction, supporting someone who is, or simply curious about human behavior, Vik Maraj's insights provide a compelling reason to tune in.
