In this episode, we join Kelly Brogan on Reclamation Radio to explore the roots of today’s thinking crisis, digging into how trauma, belief systems, and alternative frameworks shape our understanding of reality. Alec shares his path from conventional beliefs about germ theory to recognizing how it impacts personal sovereignty. Together, they examine how unprocessed trauma leaves a legacy in our thoughts and emotions, influencing the way we perceive truth.


Key Topics Covered: 
 
Origins of the Thinking Crisis: How inherited trauma and belief systems hinder critical thinking today. 
 
Transforming Trauma: Reclaiming power by using past trauma as a catalyst for new perspectives and truth. 
 
A New Perspective on Germ Theory: Alec’s journey to understanding germ theory and reclaiming sovereignty. 
 
Unraveling Inner Truths: Techniques for connecting with inner truth and working with intense emotions. 
 
Empiricism, Rationalism & Mysticism: Examples of each and how they shape our views of the world. 
 
Victimhood Cloaked in Sovereignty: Recognizing when victimhood masquerades as empowerment. 
 
Embracing Uncertainty: The importance of open questioning and accepting the unknown.
