Re-Awakening into Connection is the core of what Accidental Gods is about – the return of our heritage, our birthright, our ability to live in context with the web of life.
It’s not long in evolutionary terms, since we were a part of the living world, able to ask questions, and answer the questions that were asked of us. Now, as we stand on the cusp either of catastrophe or extraordinary change, we need to regain that capacity: we need to re-awaken our innate abilities so that we can take our part in the web of life, in full confidence that we are the right people in the right place at the right time to do whatever is asked of us to affect the change the world needs.
So – how do we do this? How do we bring ourselves to a point where we can walk out into the natural world and open ourselves to a conversation that is going on every moment of every day and every night – without us? How can we ask questions and hear answers in a way that feels as if we are part of a genuine, authentic, reciprocal relationship? How can we become clear enough that our listening is not tainted by our egos, our judgements of self or other, our projections and our sheer terror of getting things wrong? (or right).
In this podcast, we talk about this, and propose some answers. None of this happens overnight. We can’t undo the domestication of a lifetime in a few minutes – but it can be done. We are born able to connect. We just need to remember how. And then we need to take our place in the web of consciousness with a sense of integrity and confidence that we’re the right people in the right place at the right time, doing what is needed of us – without ego, projection or fear. It’s fun. Trust me.

Conscious evolution could be our next evolutionary step - a radical shift in what it means to be human. In this episode we outline the steps that we believe could lead us on the path to a co-creation of a new future for humanity.
We are the accidental gods - all of us - we are the generational era that stands on the brink of species level extinction. For the first time in the history of evolution on this planet, one member of one species could conceivably wipe us all out. We didn't plan this, but it's where we are. What can we do?
No problem is solved from the mindset that created it. So we need to think beyond our current expectations of ourselves. We believe that we are ready to make the next evolutionary step. Not a tweak to our DNA, but a change in consciousness - a choice consciously made, to step into all that we can be.
So this is what we're here for at accidental gods - to chart one way, to inspire, to bring together all the best of what we can be.
This introductory episode puts forward our proposition that conscious evolution is not only timely, it's essential if we're going to survive to the next decade and begins to open the doors to how, collectively, we might get there.
This is a paradigm shift, the emergence from a hypercomplex system - and as such, the end point is, by necessity, impossible to imagine from here. But what we can do is shift our mindset so that we are making steady iterative steps towards a different future. As a starting point, we list the four steps we believe are integral to our progress: (Re)Awakening into Connection: Growing into Coherence, Asking for Help (of the other than human world) and Letting go of all that we believe to be true.
