About This Podcast

Almost Enlightened is a show about discovery. Reflection is the lens through which the host, Alex, takes you on a journey of thought and emotion. Intertwining observation and experience, Alex's reflections are certainly thought provoking, often times eliciting a panoply of conflicting emotions. That's natural and that's deliberate. If you're interested in seeing life from a variety of perspectives; if you're interested in developing an ability to think for yourself, then this is the show for you! This is different. Are you okay with different?
