My new book is out now. It's called "On Relationality: Lessons from Martin Buber on Living in Relation with Self, Others, the World, and Life Itself."

Recently I've developed a fascination with regenerative agriculture. It's a philosophy that attempts to increase an ecosystem's vitality and aliveness over time. I've spent days and weeks at a time at regenerative farms throughout Sweden to learn how it is done in practice.
This might seem strange for a coach and therapist. I'll admit, I'm surprised as anyone else. But if there's one thing I've learned so far, it's this: human development and ecosystem development are both questions of aliveness.
Read more about what I've learned about living, leading, and healing in my latest post. alexcarabi.com/writing/a-reg…
Freedom is often talked about as an absence of limits. The fewer obstacles and constraints we have, the more free we think we are. Freedom is seen as separation from obligation.
This notion of freedom is in stark contrast to ancient philosophies and spiritual traditions have thought about it. According to these traditions, freedom is not an absence of limits, but is rather what lies on the other side of self-discipline and self-limitation.
By doing the inner work to "sculpt our own statue", we release outdated thought patterns, which allows us to be more here, now. The more connected, obligated, and inter-dependent we dare to be, the more free we can become. Read more in my latest post.

In my latest post I explore what an alternative to "in order to" thinking might look like, by exploring the intersection of ethics, choice-making, and embodiment.

In this short book, I explore relationality through the lens of Martin Buber’s ideas. Integrating psychology and philosophy, leadership and metaphysics, the book translates Buber’s concepts into digestible explanations and practical suggestions for living a more relational life.

The business world is steeped in military and colonial metaphors. “Quick wins and must-win battles”. “Expanding empires.” “Strategies to beat the competition and take over markets”. There are even things called “war rooms”.
