Self; Centered Fear

Self; Centered Fear

Author: Gustavo Lomas November 30, 2018 Duration: 3:25
Fear is a powerful thing, when we allow it to be. This poem is about accepting your courage and standing to face, yourself.

Gustavo Lomas hosts New Age Renaissance, a podcast that resists easy categorization. While it finds a home in education, arts, and philosophy, its true aim is to explore life itself as a broad concept and a personal experience. The show is built on a foundation of depth rather than specific subjects, often pushing beyond the limits suggested by its own category tags. You’ll hear Gustavo engage in spontaneous, flowing conversations that feel present and unscripted, much like the very first episode which set this organic tone. From that initial freeform experiment, the discussions have branched out into a wide spectrum of ideas touching on culture, society, books, and self-improvement. Listening feels less like attending a lecture and more like participating in a thoughtful, meandering dialogue where the moment dictates the path. This approach creates a space where profound questions and everyday observations hold equal weight. The New Age Renaissance podcast is for anyone who finds that the most interesting answers often lie between traditional disciplines, inviting you to consider the depth of your own experience through these unstructured yet intentional conversations.
