Description

“Hold That Thought” is something you say when you don’t want the conversation to rush ahead but still want to see where the idea leads.

This podcast lives in the pause: the space between reaction and reflection, focus and exploration, where ideas stretch and change. Blending research, storytelling, and reflection, each episode examines the forces that shape how we think, relate, and make meaning of ourselves and the world around us.

Episodes are organized into mini-series that explore a concept from multiple angles, creating space for deeper and more connected conversation.
