I have found my way into the "third spaces" most of my life. I believe my background in Buddhism and education and work in conflict analysis and resolution have also benefited me along this path.

Nice to hear you also have a background in conflict resolution, Zander. That type of training really supports this understanding of the middle way, or as you call it, 'third spaces'. Thanks for reading!

Love the phrase "third spaces", particularly in todays Us vs Them, Left vs Right dichotomies.

I think you're so right about those different frameworks being helpful to discover third spaces. I'm convinced a lot of our collective rigid thinking today stems from the simple ignorance of the possibility of a third space. Once I developed a heuristic for asking myself "is there another perspective/option" beyond what seems stuck in a rigid binary, it became a regular, natural practice.
