Another solo episode with some pressing reflections that wanted to come out. I reflect on the myths of separation, control and survival. Also invite you to consider the Relax, Repurpose and Remember triad that Innrwrks is working on. Most of all I invite you to be with the very challenging (and rewarding perspective): If everything in this world is as its supposed to be - what are we invited to learn? Some of the resources that I touch upon: Episodes from World of Wisdom podcast Karl-Erik Edris, Michel Bauwens. Blogs: Temporal weaving as a practice, My substack, World of Wisdom substack. Other resources: Johnathan Rowson, Caring Economics (Eisler), Innrwrks... enjoy! Extended shownotes (Substack)

Karl-Erik Edris came by for a second conversation (here's the first from nov 2023). This time we spoke of the rise of fall of civilizations, where we currently seem to be in this current change, the axial age, the fall of the roman empire, Jesus, modernity and what might be coming next. What is it that our current ways of treating eachother and the planet can teach us? What are we invited to learn? If you are one of us that is looking for the 'smoke' that connects the real world and language as Karl-Erik puts it this is definitely a conversation for you. Enjoy.
