Geoff Fitch, a founding partner of Pacific Integral, and Abigail Lynam, faculty at Fielding University, dive deep into the Awakened Wholeness project. They explore the dual nature of awakening and wholeness, discussing the tension between deconstructive awakening and full human identification. The conversation shifts to the importance of integrating disowned parts, embracing vulnerability, and witnessing awakening through multisensory experiences. They emphasize the role of humor and play in personal and collective transformation, inviting listeners to nurture intuition and connection.
