Episode 9- Reflections and Stories
We reserved this episode to reflect on and tie together the preceding episodes. Each of our guests has provided us with a window or access point into understanding elements of the whole system. On a deeper level, they have helped us understand that we cannot create new potential in the world without creating new potential in ourselves. This thread runs through each episode, culminating in the last episode’s discussion about consciousness, about the work associated with “becoming” different:
To do different things, we need to do things differently;
To do things differently, we need to think differently;
To think differently, we need to be different.
Our guests have taught us about how they do this work through stories, so we will reflect on those and other stories, since storytelling is such an effective means for discovering the patterns and potential of living systems. Everyone has a story, and it is from these stories that we can begin to experience how we can be whole again.
