Most of us were handed a version of the safe path before we were old enough to question it. Study hard, build something stable, don't be reckless. This session's article sits with what happens when that conditioning meets the part of you that wants something else and why choosing between security and meaning so rarely feels straightforward.
Part of our March series: The Great Unlearning — examining the inherited beliefs, cultural scripts, and expectations we grew up with.
Reading Room is an intimate gathering for those who love a light yet thoughtful read, and enjoy talking about what lingered.
We’ll read a short article on the call together (the kind you might find in The New Yorker) then share what stood out, what felt uncomfortable, or what stayed with us after.
There’s no prep and no pressure to be articulate or insightful. Think of it as just reading something meaningful together and having a chat or a laugh about it!
