Essay | Eros, Evolution and Moving from Psychology Toward Soul-Making — Al Jeffery
In this episode, I read my most recent essay on “Eros, the Evolution of Life and Mind, and Moving from Psychology Toward Soul-Making.” This paper explores Eros (in it’s mythological and evolutionary sense) as a guiding organisational principle of life and invites us to tend to our connection to Eros as a partner in our renewal and re-engendering of relationship.
Drawing on evolutionary biology, integral theory, attachment theory, theories of mind, developmental moral imagination, and more, I attempt to show how an Eros-(re)infused way of seeing and being might afford us great energy and direction in this time of fragmentation.
Dive in, come to understand, and feel Eros in a renewed way. Let it animate your life and leadership.

Spaces Between with Al Jeffery
Sitting around the philosophical fire, join Al as he explores integral perspectives and regenerative practices for restoring community in the 21st Century. What does it mean to 'queer the mind,' and live in congruence with the wholeness of who we are, to integrate our parts? In a deeply-connected-yet-fragmented world, Al invites ambitious thinking, deepens ways of feeling, and welcomes broadened epistemologies that may extend our cultural imagination to a more totalising and inclusive horizon. Through elucidating the mutli-dimensionality of the human condition through psychological know-how, philosophical insight, and artistic poetics, Al and the guests he invites attempt to weave a larger story in which to find ourselves and our way, together. How does our view on leadership and relating shift through an embodied developmental lens? How might we contribute to a life-regenerating future from the inside-out? Spaces Between is an open-inquiry into restoring connection in our lives, relations, and communities. Modelling generative dialogue, vulnerability, and courageous conversation, Al weaves not only a heard but felt journey back to connection with self and world 🌏Join Podchaser to...
