Radical Change: Building a Parallel Economy with Peter Kemp of Citizen Coin 1:20:14

3d ago1:20:14

1:20:14

We are living through a time between stories—where the old economic narratives of scarcity, extraction, and separation are crumbling, and a new one is seeking to be born.

10d ago1:35:41

1:35:41

All flourishing is mutual, that's a given. And yet the schisms in our culture, the tribal divides and limbic hijack seem to grow deeper and more powerful by the day. It doesn't have to be like this. We do have the tools of connection, of genuine listening, of offering trust to gain trust and offering respect to gain respect, we just need to know ho…

Bonus: Thoughts from the Edge - If the current system is not fit for purpose, what's our core response? 35:02

28d ago35:02

35:02

Suppose we accept that the current system is not broken - it is doing what it was always designed to do - which is to shovel wealth and power from the many to the few at a human scale and from the more-than-human world to the industrial/technical maw of predatory capitalism at an ecological scale. This is a death cult and it is in its death throes,…

We grow up thinking we want to be happy (or at least, not-sad). But happiness isn't enough.

So what is wholeness, and what does it demand of us? A…
