On the surface, the Victorian age is one of propriety, industry, prudishness and piety. But scratch the surface and you’ll find scandal, sadism, sex, madness, malice and murder. Presented by Stephen Fry, this series delves deep into a period of time we think we know, to discover an altogether darker reality. The stories we’re told offer a different perspective on an era which underwent massive social change. As education, trade, technology and culture blossomed, why was there an undercurrent of the ‘forbidden’ festering beneath Victorian society?

Most historians study the smallest slivers of time, emphasizing specific dates, individuals, and documents. But what would it look like to study the whole of history, from the big bang through the present day - and even into the remote future? How would looking at the full span of time change the way we perceive the universe, the earth, and our very existence? These were the questions David Christian set out to answer when he created the field of "Big History", the most exciting new approach to understanding where we have been, where we are, and where we are going.

Over the past seven years, she found that leaders in organizations ranging from small entrepreneurial startups and family-owned businesses to nonprofits, civic organizations, and Fortune 50 companies, are asking the same questions: How do you cultivate braver, more daring leaders? And how do you embed the value of courage in your culture? Dare to Lead answers these questions and gives us actionable strategies and real examples from her research-based, courage-building program.

One sided
Usually I love this podcast, but I think there's something missing with this one. The man's feeling like "he was holding down the home while she was pursuing her career" is a little bit of a double standard. Men have been doing that to their women who are stuck at home for centuries. It doesnt make him special. He's projecting all these things from his childhood (alcoholic father, death of surrogate father) onto his wife, who he moved to America when she was very young. Clearly it was a mistake to marry so young so if you cant forgive and move on then just...move on. It seems like he just wants to be mad forever.

She missed a big point
I *love* Esther Perel and I am really impressed with these sessions. In this one I think she really missed the fact that this guy is a perpetual victim and has some deep personal problems that need to be worked out. She brushed on it a bit but really dismissed it as a problem and that was a bit disappointing.

Empathy lessons
Esther Perel is a master mediator who takes no sides and helps her subjects become aware, probably for the first time, of their past pain bodies and how they play out in the present. She has profoundly 'simple' ways of revealing truths that can enable people to awaken to self and other and begin healing. I've heard all of her programs and can't recommend them enough ... if you're a human being, you'll benefit.

Accountability.ownership
Didn't like this one. This guy deserved more of a reassurance and explanation from his wife. Esther was soft and there seemed to be zero accountability, zero ownership and zero discipline on the wife's part. If you want to experiment sexually don't get married or at least tell the guy you're marrying you want an open relationship. She's having her cake and eating it too.
