S2E8. Death and Eros (Part 2)

How do we stay connected to eros—to aliveness, creativity, and source—as we move through ageing, loss, and change? In this episode, we reflect on our experience of being in our forties, letting go of identities formed in earlier stages of life, and allowing space for both the grief and the beauty that come with becoming someone new.

We explore how personal transitions mirror wider cultural shifts, using our relationship with rapidly evolving technology as a lens for understanding resistance, adaptation, and surrender. Through the interplay of masculine and feminine energies, we talk about the necessity of structures that can hold creative chaos—while recognising when those structures must soften, dissolve, or die so life can continue to move. Keeping eros alive, we suggest, means trusting uncertainty and allowing the container itself to be temporary.

All of this unfolds against the backdrop of a world facing profound instability, where collective futures feel increasingly uncertain. We sit with the question of how to remain open, rooted, and in love with life while standing so close to the edge of cultural and ecological death.
