YouTube Video Description
📍 “I realized that some people have no appetite for peace. Drama is their pleasure. But living a life of love, trust, and connection takes a refined palate.”
Hello from Casamance, Senegal 🌍. In this video, I share reflections on my journey through Ghana and now Senegal, where I’ve been diving deep into reading and self-awareness. The book The Games People Play opened my eyes to how psychological and energy games keep people stuck in cycles of drama and conflict, reinforcing their sense of self.
I explore why peace, love, and mutual trust feel “boring” for some—especially those with a history of trauma. Developing a refined palate for peace isn’t easy. It’s like shifting from craving junk food to savoring the subtle sweetness of a peach. Some people prefer the energy boost of anger or suspicion over calm connection.
In this video, I invite you to reflect:
- Why do we cling to conflict instead of love and trust?
- How does trauma shape our relationships and appetite for peace?
- What does it take to move from a palette of power and drama to one of peace and creativity?
🌱 Let’s talk about:
- Psychological games in relationships and the energy they bring
- Developing a life of connection, love, and mutual support
- How travel can inspire self-awareness and emotional healing
