The Jōrni Podcast - Love & Reason (podcast interview)

The Jōrni Podcast with Petra Brunnbauer - Episode 401, July 7, 2026Love refuses to behave the way logic says it should. It’s not love in particular, it’s any aspect of behavior that reaches across thought, feeling, memory, training, and habit. Whenever you have compulsion mixed with aspiration, need, and intention, reason is a poor tool. It’s not because these things are unreasonable, it’s because there are too many reasons.Maybe love was never a problem to solve, but a capacity to grow. We explore the idea that learning to love ourselves changes how we love everyone else, and why the questions that have no clean answer are often the most rewarding to explore.Lincoln Stoller works in private practice as both a counselor and coach helping people see how and why they have created their environment, their view of reality, and sense of self. His work comes together under the heading of mastering one’s state of mind through experience, aiming to raise his clients sense of purpose in all aspects of their lives.Listen to this episode on Apple Podcasts at:You’ll find more of Petra’s material at: https://thejorni.com/ This is a public episode.
