We're saying there's a deeper way of being able to make sense how what seems like a lot of different issues in the world are enterconnected, where understanding that gives us a different possibility space with which to think about how to forward. So this is a like heart, will, mind, all working together. And it's pretty easy to see that any two of those three don't work. And you get really smart carrying academ who feel broken and hopeless of the impossibility of the world. You get heart and will without deep mental frames. And so what we're going to be talkend about next time is some of the strategic frames, or the theoretical frames, that inform better strategy.
On this episode we meet with founding member of The Consilience Project, Daniel Schmachtenberger.
In Part 3 of their series, Schmachtenberger and Hagens explore metanarratives. Why are they threatening to various sections of society?
Further, Schmachtenberger helps us understand how we can take in the systemic metacrisis facing humanity in ways that grant us agency, rather than despair.
