What 19th-Century Romanticism Can Teach Us About Navigating Our 20s and Feeling Alive Again
Description
What if beauty wasn’t something soft and sweet… but something vast, dangerous, and soul-shaking?
In this episode, we dive deep into the Romantic movement - not dating apps or romcoms, but the 19th-century revolution of artists and poets who believed that awe, longing, terror, and wonder were not distractions from life but the very point of it.
This isn’t your high school English syllabus. The Romantics were obsessed with danger, desire, melancholy, and the sublime… that dizzying, breathtaking feeling that reminds you you’re still alive.
It was an art movement that inspired revolutions - the French, the American, the Haitian. Because to feel deeply in a disenchanted world is political.
And today, in an age of algorithms, apathy, and endless scrolling, it might be exactly what we need.
This episode is your reminder that feeling is a form of resistance. And aliveness is an art.
