As We Know It

The whole idea of this podcast is this: What if your brain isn't creating consciousness? What if your brain is filtering consciousness? Like your normal waking life is just the smallest little slice of the signal. Your brain is keeping you locked into the version of reality you can survive in. Bills. Work. Identity. Time. Your name. Your body. Your problems. All of that. But then something breaks...

The divine; good and evil; Adam and Eve. Was the snake actually the True God attempting to wake us to the nature of our being? As I was on a run, some thoughts on the subject came forth. Everything I grew up being taught is seemingly making more sense from another perspective. It seems that God is unknowable in the current conditions we are in as humans. Only personal experiences and interactions...

Conversing about the walls we put up to the world. It is interesting to ponder about the lens through which each of us see. Let's focus on Truth. Discover how you manage your relationships. Lay down your burdens. Learn to rid yourself of your worst vices. Imagine the self you live with every day, but at a genuine peace and gratefulness. Come with me on the journey to walk closer with God and live...

A quick prayer introducing real Truth to As We Know It. This journey continues. Stay tuned...

Learning how to harness the energy of this life! This episode I am conversing with the thoughts of my own. Who even am I to claim such power in this life? Accepting confrontation from God. Why wasn't there instructions that came with this super computer we call our brain? For we are only human, all we can do is have faith. Otherwise, death may just be the only thing we are able to cling to. Rememb...

Merry Christmas! Catching up with my good friend, Jonah.  A nice change of pace from my recent solo episodes. We touch on a variety of subjects along the lines of centering your values on Truth and learning what that may be for you. It's always nice hearing different perspectives on how the world works, you learn a lot about who you are through others even if you don't even realize.

Expressing more on how to manage the weight of life. Attempting to walk through this maze of thought in order to become more articulate and disciplined in my faith. I discuss the concept of duality and the topic of knowing God versus being naive of Him. These are just my thoughts in the moment so that I may learn how to understand more clearly as I find my way through this life. 

This episode is a very raw look at myself. It is heavy and I am expressing much of my pain. It might be best to skip this episode, but in order to stay true to what this podcast is about I felt the need to express this. I pray to God that He will point me in the direction towards realizing my burdens so that I may be able to truly lay them down. Thank you. Peace and Love, Joel.

Coming closer to Truth. Remembering that simple does not equal easy. In this episode I try to engage in the thought of realizing when God is trying to tell me something. Learning to let go of the flesh of my old self and become lethal with a routine in order to unlock my truest human self and strength. Here I am God, for you. Excited to have more conversations with others soon! Working on getting...

Learning to articulate more of the direction in which this podcast is going. Taking notes on how to follow down a path closer to the Truth. Decoding our brain puzzles! We all are experiencing life together. Let's discover who we are and who we are meant to be. This is As We Know It. Here is to coming home. Peace and love, Joel.

We're back again! I know I say this every time. Today is essentially a push for me to get back into recording and conversation. Expressing recent thought and learning what direction to take this podcast. Thank you for listening! Here's to a revival from within and learning how to strengthen my relationship with God. 

Hello again, this is as we know it. I am here. These are my thoughts. Riding the waves of this journey. This is where I am in this whole thing. Looking forward to coming up on this next cycle of life. Peace and love.

On my way across country with my dog. In the mountains somewhere currently and wanted to share some experiences and thought on how amazing this world is. Life is so great. There are significant highs and lows that cycle through often. It has been life changing learning how to grow from both sides of the coin. Fear is just another form of love. Love your fears and become curious. Peace and love.

This one was recorded on my drive to California! Sort of a deeper episode that talks about how you might start your journey of healing within. It is a hard topic to discuss as many people hide from who they truly are. I wish you the best on your path. Peace and love. Joel.

In Arizona for this episode visiting our friends Nick and Jonah! This one is all over the place. Ranging from aliens to religion to societal topics. This conversation was so fun! Thanks so much for listening. Check out the instagram @asweknow.it 

This is a very special podcast. We're set up on Boyne Mountain at a lodge for the weekend celebrating Nate's birthday. This was an amazing opportunity to converse with so many people from high school, many of which I have not even seen since. This podcast is by far the best one to date. Reason being simply because it brought so many beautiful people together to express appreciation for not only Na...

Back with some more inward reflection. Learning how to go at life alone, that is to be without distraction. Figuring out who really deserves the love you give, which is yourself. This is As We Know It. Peace and love. Joel.

This was a very special night. If you are struggling through this life, hang on and believe, for you will find faith. Life is all about how you follow your path, choose the one less traveled. Be curious. Trust that it is worth it. I would love to chat about anything with anyone. Thank you for listening to my journey. -Joel

Today the topic is all about self-reflection. I highly recommend you take some form of a journal as you listen and ask yourself certain questions about the way you are living your life. Learn how to create your puzzle of life and to continue to put them together every day. Disclaimer: By no means is my message aiming to tell you how to live, just trying to create a guide to help some people create...
