Collective Evolution with Joe Martino

We explore new and emerging ideas in philosophy, well-being, human potential, consciousness and more as we seek clarity and direction through heavily changing times. Virtually every aspect of our society is crumbling or transitioning – media, technology, consciousness, economies, education, relationships and more. Old ways of looking at and understanding our world are no longer relevant, and new ways encourage us to look more deeply at why our world is the way it is, and what about US creates it to be this way. The questions of who we are, why we are here, and what future we truly want to create, are on the table for us to re-approach.

    Ep. 55 | The Wake Up Call We All Need To Hear About Society with Chris Agnos

    In this episode, Joe and Chris explore the complexities of market economies, the illusion of freedom in ownership, and the challenges posed by competition. They discuss how the current system is designed to prioritize profit over community and well-being, leading to ecological and social issues. They discuss the potential for alternative economies and the importance of rebuilding the commons through community-driven initiatives. The conversation also includes some practice steps toward exploring a solution now that could allow people to exist outside of the current market while still being able to participate in the market. Chris Agnos is the creator of The People’s Library, a vision for a parallel economy built on cooperation, shared access, and care. After years of exploring the root causes behind inequality, environmental destruction, and social disconnection, Chris came to a powerful realization: the market itself—with its foundations in competition, ownership, and profit—is driving the very crises we’re trying to solve. 🌱 What is the People’s Library? The People’s Library is a new kind of economy—one that exists alongside markets but isn’t defined by profit, ownership, or competition. Inspired by the simplicity of a public library, it’s a system where food, housing, transportation, tools, and more are shared within a community, not bought or sold. Instead of working just to survive, people contribute meaningfully to their communities and access what they need—without rent, debt, or scarcity. It’s about freedom, purpose, and thriving together. 🌐 Explore the Movement: https://www.ThePeoplesLibrary.life ▶️ YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@chrisagnos Here is a document with a ton more relevant links for The People's Library: https://docs.google.com/document/d/e/2PACX-1vRWwV4i0-qDvmxXXTiZ4Au3Jtin0vWZrK-ndh5FMf8M16K-DAxTb_dSUQqfFV9uxx8bF3OgypPH6U3c/pub Listen on: Spotify here - https://open.spotify.com/episode/37J0b9HWU6EOahFIa4LPQAApple Podcasts here - https://podcasts.apple.com/ca/podcast/ep-55-the-wake-up-call-we-all-need-to-hear-about/id1327602180?i=1000703148080 Visit our sponsor: https://www.despierta.one/ Use discount code CEPODCAST for 15% offJoin our email list - https://www.collective-evolution.com/ce-insightI'd love for you to join our membership to support our work, it goes a long way in helping - https://explorerlounge.one/

    Ep. 51 | The Chaos Catalyst: Defining Progress in Times of Social Upheaval w Daniel Pinchbeck

    When looking at our global challenges and our current moment, it can be easy to get caught up in the chaos of it all – perhaps to an extent we do have to feel that a bit. But what happens if we took our perspectives back to first principles, back to worldview, back to wisdom and what it might mean to make progress? Today Joe is joined by Daniel Pinchbeck to explore the nature of our current moment and how we might respond to it from a different lens. What would it mean to truly make progress? How can we come together regardless of our differences and divisions? What role does human consciousness and trauma play in the current state of the world?About Daniel Pinchbeck Daniel Pinchbeck is an American author, philosopher, and cultural critic known for his work on consciousness, psychedelics, and societal transformation. His books, including Breaking Open the Head, 2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl, How Soon Is Now, and When Plants Dream, explore shamanism, prophecy, ecological crises, and the impact of psychedelics on culture. Beyond writing, Pinchbeck has been deeply involved in projects aimed at fostering regenerative solutions for global challenges. He founded the think tank the Elevator and launched Liminal News, a platform for exploring topics ranging from ecology and politics to spirituality and technology.
