    • Society & Culture

In this deep conversation we dive into:


A conversation on what it takes to build better systems and a better world 
What would it look like to create a system that encourages you to be healthy, be connected, and live a better life?
Can we create a system that’s not only linear, what would it take and what does it look like?
Your wisdom, my wisdom, and right wisdom
What’s our shared reality?
The value and harm of certain biases
Pausing to reflect on simple questions for profoundly deep insight
The dangers of action without wisdom
How do we integrate traditional ancient wisdom with modern wisdom?
Imaginary numbers and solving problems in the non-linear
How do we make decisions holding the sacred
And so much more!
