Episode notes

M: I think it was a fatal flaw, and there was no winning. There was no way to come up with a solution to people exploiting the rules that had already been agreed upon to undermine the movement. Dogma will always destroy things. So this isn't so much of a critique as as an appreciation of what we were able to learn from occupy wall street. It took me ten years to get clear on the message, but what i'm learning from that right now is that sensus is not the right goal. The right goal is resonance. And when consensus driven decision making works, it works because it's doing this.

A conversation about how emergence can be the foundation a new society. We talk about how societies can create containers for healthy decision making. And how sacred containers can allow for the emergence of the planetary movement we’re longing for.

David Sauvage asks, how do we create the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible? In my first episode after returning from the Emerge gathering in Austin, we discuss the future of collective decision-making, reflect on our shared past with Occupy Wallstreet, and consider the role of participatory democracy in what is emerging. David puts preliminary words to a vision originating from the gathering this summer.
