Navid Zargham of Simran Meditation (instagram) came on and we took on one of the most central topics of this shift we're in: separation. Navid is a practitioner and guide for people to find what is sometimes referred to as 'non-duality', or as he says himself "a way of looking behind the scenes, behind the culture and behind the programming" . This is a beautiful conversation, we touch on separation, belonging, the sense of freedom and love most of us want. Why non-duality will not make you less efficient nor will necessarily make you stop doing anything. We speak of detachment and most of all we invite us all to simply stop, ground yourself and check. Enjoy!

Dr. Claudine Perlet (LinkedIn, webpage) stepped out from her top tier corporate job for a large insurance company in 2017 and began exploring alternatives. She landed on Regenerative Economics as her frame for the work she is doing now. This conversation speaks of the regenerative business transformation and we address, head on, some of the things that will no longer be working as we move deeper into ecosystems collapse. We speak of what it takes to afford to contribute to the transition, why community and conviviality is so important and why it, sooner than we might hope, will be important to remember that you cannot eat money. Enjoy!

This is a rich conversation about our current challenges seen through the lens of gatherings. Enjoy!

Tanuja Prasad (LinkedIn) and I had a conversation about her work in regenerative investments. We talked about the spirit of investments, the driving force behind investment up until this point, how to transcend the extractive paradigm and shift away from the control and force as the governing principles towards something more generative. Tanuja and I spoke of the Systems view of life and how it’s influenced our work and thinking. This is a conversation that is profound and subtle. It works with a new set of metaphors and concepts with the ambition to reinvent the fundamentals of investing for a regenerative paradigm. Enjoy!

Jeremy D Johnson visited the podcast a second time after 2 years (website). This was a deep and curious conversation about change all the way down. We spoke of emergence happening in the middle, the idea of slowing down, the importance of hesitation, temporics of attention, the awakening of the relational (integrated) worldview in younger generations. We also spoke of this notion of the potential for creative responses in the fisures, in those moments when our habits no longer meets the worlds we live in.
