Scaling Deep

Tatiana Fraser @ The Systems Sanctuary

Scaling Deep hosted by Tatiana Fraser engages deep and informal conversation with our guests who are at the forefront and edges of thinking and practice in systems change. The show facilitates learning across diverse wisdom traditions and experience to inform our collective action. We surface patterns, exchange learning and are guided by these inquiry questions: What is possible if we hold a collective intention to align with life and love? How do we cultivate the conditions to work across difference? How do we create healthy and aligned collective cultures of care?
