Take Part is a podcast about what happens when people come together — in communities, at work, and everywhere in between. With a mix of solo episodes and conversations with people finding new ways to connect and collaborate, we explore the art and science of group dynamics: how to show up better in the rooms that matter, how to make in-person time count through facilitation, and why working well with others might be the most human skill any of us can develop.

Featuring insights on 'rugged individualism' as coined by Herbert Hoover, the transcendentalist movement, and the philosophies of anarchist Emma Goldman, we dig into how the concept of individualism has similarities and differences within wildly different contexts. I also talk about the impact of individualism on society, especially in relation to scarcity, competition, and the hidden support systems behind individual achievements. I will offer four ways to redefine individualism in a way that will benefit you. Please let me know what you think! Do these four steps seem doable for your life?
