The title of this episode is basically this: will you choose capitalism? Or humanity? Which is to say: you can choose to be a full human being with all of your facets and complexities, living life exploring this existence in all ways (art making! communities of care! food growing!). OR you can give your power away and allow capitalism to dictate your fated path by constantly running on the treadmill of productivity. (Reminder: you’re not a cog in a machine.) And before you get all “well, how am I supposed to live in a capitalist society if I don’t make money?”, listen to this episode. It’s about remembering your soul path and learning self-trust again. With the lunar full moon eclipse in Pisces, there’s a whole lotta unconscious releasing (which, if you ask me, includes the conditioned thinking we got from capitalism). And with that release is a remembering and an invitation to create. Tune in!
