On Being Aligned

Today I’m joined by my dear friend and mentor, Jamie Smart - bestselling author, speaker, and executive coach.He’s a remarkable human being with a long track record of helping others tap into their spiritual nature, deeper clarity, and innate wisdom.Since writing CLARITY more than a decade ago, he has been championing a new, principle-based paradigm for psychology as a key to thriving in a rapidly and exponentially changing world.In this conversation, we explore what Jamie calls exponential clarity, misaligned goals, the limits of linear thinking in an exponential world, insight, well-being, and the deeper source of wisdom available within all of us.In more details:* what Jamie means by exponential clarity* why human goals are often misaligned with our own well-being* the limits of linear thinking in an exponential age* insight, resilience, and the deeper source of wisdom within* why the age of AI asks for a deeper kind of clarity and wisdom* what kind of inner development this moment may be asking of usThis conversation is especially for founders, leaders, creators - and, more broadly, for high-agency people who sense that this moment may be asking for a deeper kind of alignment.If you’d like to explore these themes more deeply, you can find my writing and ways to work with me at dariomartinis.com.Thanks for reading On Being Aligned!
