Becoming Collapse Conscious and What To Do About It with Jamie Wheal

Joining us on the show this week is author and co-founder of the Flow Genome Project, Jamie Wheal. Many of you have likely heard of Jamie through his groundbreaking work writing about flow states in his book, ‘Stealing Fire: How Silicon Valley, the Navy SEALS, and Maverick Scientists Are Revolution the Way We Live and Work’ or his other more recent work, ‘Recapture the Rapture: Rethinking God, Sex, and Death in a World That’s Lost It’s Mind’. He’s also the thinker behind the popular Substack, ‘Altered States of America’ which has gone on to amass over 45k people.

For this conversation, Jamie and I explore the confronting subject of collapse. Whether it’s ecological, societal, or cultural, there are certain perspectives that we can adopt which will help us navigate the unavoidable changes that are going to challenge humans in the next century. We also explore ways to stay inspired, how to navigate the wellness industrial complex, and why thinking about death is good for us.
