Join Adam Kawalec as he explores the topic of war in the latest episode of "Inside The Comfort Zone." Discover the principles of just war, the devastating impact of modern conflicts on civilians, and the alternatives to violence.

This thought-provoking episode challenges our perspectives on war and offers insights into nonviolent action and social change.

"For there to be a conflict, there must be at least two sides, two versions of what is right and wrong, and both equally convinced of their righteousness."
— Adam Kawalec
00:02:34 Modern wars cause harm, civilian casualties unacceptable. Overspending on the military. Training desensitises soldiers. War propaganda secures support. Nonviolence is the alternative for social change.
00:05:12 Peace is not just the absence of fighting. Ask yourself, do you want someone to do something because they want to, or because you told them to? This applies on a global level too.
00:09:18 Are leaders truly listening? Conflict victims matter.
00:10:48 Nonviolent action vital for peace and democracy.
00:14:13 Thank you for brave listening.

Welcome back to Inside The Comfort Zone With Adam Kawalec. In today's raw and honest episode, we dive deep into the topic of boundaries. Join me, your host Adam Kawalec, as we explore the importance of defining and respecting our own boundaries while taking responsibility for them.
We'll discuss how putting the onus of boundary enforcement on others can lead to confusion and complications in our relationships. I'll emphasize that it is our right to set our own boundaries and, more importantly, our responsibility to enforce the consequences should those boundaries be violated.
Throughout the episode, we'll explore the areas in our lives where we compromise at the expense of our goals and dreams. We'll imagine a life without the ability to pursue what we truly desire, and reflect on what we would miss, what would feel exciting, and what would feel sad.
Throughout this episode, we'll address common misunderstandings about boundaries and the importance of establishing them for our own well-being and empowerment. We'll debunk the myth that boundaries automatically guarantee respect, and instead, focus on how boundaries should primarily guide our own actions and choices.
So, get ready to gain a fresh perspective on boundaries and learn how they can help us thrive in our relationships and achieve personal growth. Join me for this captivating conversation of The Power of Boundaries: Setting Limits and Taking Ownership.

Today we're diving into the post-vacation period. We all know that feeling of euphoria and relaxation that comes with taking time off, but what happens when that vacation bliss starts to fade away?
In this episode, we'll explore the challenges that come with transitioning back to everyday life after a vacation. From the stress of expectations to the post-trip blues, we'll discuss why vacations don't always provide the significant boost in well-being we hope for. But fear not, because we'll also offer practical tips and strategies for maximizing relaxation and extending the benefits of your vacation. So sit back, relax, and join me as we navigate the “fading-out” period after the much-needed time off.
Let's get started!
"Planning for, and blocking out some post-vacation fun time is a great way to help prolong the benefits of vacation."
— Adam Kawalec
