There Is No Map For This
from A Penny For Your Thoughts · host Penny Plautz
What if the unknown isn’t something we’re supposed to figure out? I spent much of 2025 trying to create a blueprint for uncertainty. But life—and loss—have been teaching me something very different: perhaps the path doesn’t exist until we begin walking it. In this episode, I explore what it means to loosen our grip on certainty, “live the questions,” and leave room for things we can’t explain—including a mysterious appearance by my dad on my television after his death. Was it an algorithm? Was it Dad? I don’t know. And maybe that’s the point. Inspired by Rainer Maria Rilke’s invitation to “live the questions now,” this is a reflection on grief, mystery, consciousness, uncertainty, and discovering who we are when we no longer need a map.
