Whether it is Brexit, Covid-19 or Climate Change, we are increasingly living in a world where grand narratives divide and polarise and the barriers to rational debate continue to grow. This exclusive Elevate Network event recording with David Charalambous from Reaching People explores how to have more effective conversations by addressing: - Why do people believe narratives? - What are the driving forces behind why people see the world the way they do? - Why are some people seemingly hypnotised by narratives and unwilling to engage in logical debate? - How is it two people can both be absolutely convinced that their opposing viewpoints are correct? - Why does presenting raw data rarely (if ever) change people's minds? Get access to more events like this by becoming a member of the Elevate Network at http://www.weareelevate.org About David Charalambous David Charalambous is the founder of Reaching People. Over the past 2 years, he has conducted an extensive investigation into how and why individual and collective conversations around topics like Covid-19 have become increasingly polarised and what can be done in order to bridge the gap.

Are the traditional paradigms of left and right still relevant in the modern world? Do we need a common political adversary in order for politics to function? Is it possible that society would have a greater chance to prosper if there was greater collaboration across the political spectrum? To address these questions we are joined LIVE at 17.00 by Steve McIntosh, President and Co-founder of the Institute for Cultural Evolution, a US-based Think Tank which focuses on the cultural roots of political problems. This conversation builds upon our recent interviews on integral and developmental politics as we explore how to restore the functionality of democracy.

Society is becoming so bitterly divided that it seems Western culture is falling apart. Have we forgotten how to be human? Do we need to grow up? In this episode, Jeff Salzberg, host of 'The Daily Evolver Podcast', introduces the concept of integral thinking which offers us the potential to appreciate the goodness, truth and beauty of different perspectives, even when they are at odds. Join us for this important philosophical conversation as we begin to explore how this worldview can help to bring about meaningful change. PS we're increasingly fighting the algorithm as we bring you counter-culture content so we invite you to join our mailing list at danastingregory.com/podcast to stay up to date. About Jeff Salzman Jeff Salzman is a student and teacher of integral theory, exploring the evolution of human consciousness and culture. He is the co-founder of the Boulder Integral Centre, a global centre for integral study and practice, and a Senior Fellow of the Institute for Cultural Evolution. Integral theory is a school of philosophy that seeks to integrate all of human wisdom into a new, emergent worldview that is able to accommodate the gifts of all previous worldviews, including those which have been historically at odds: science and religion, Eastern and Western schools of thought, and pre-modern, modern and post-modern worldviews. Integral consciousness is not about reconciling opposing worldviews as much as it is about accommodating them, factoring in their blind spots, and appreciating the goodness, truth and beauty each of them brings.

In this walk & talk, I ponder whether the market theory of conservation in the face of a constrained supply is likely to play out within the context of the cost of living crisis and take a deeper look at the way catastrophisation is leading to authoritarian responses.

Is the chaos, conflict and crisis being used to usher in a Global Financial Reset? Join us for our LIVE 3-hour interactive online event on Wednesday 17th August @ 19.00 UK where you will: - gain a big picture understanding of the economic and monetary systems - explore whether Bitcoin and crypto are part of the problem or part of the solution - discover how you can hedge the financial reset to retain your financial sovereignty. Reserve your spot: https://elevategroup.lpages.co/event-crypto-financial-reset/

Given the culture of fear-mongering, it's not surprising to see that the media are going as far as describing the cost of living crisis as a 'national emergency', however, it is also increasingly evident that many will face the worst fall in living standards since World War II. During tonight's LIVE episode Dan will assess the realities, root causes and possible resolutions to the rising costs of living so you can take agency over your own finances.

In the midst of many issues facing humanity, it's easy to get caught up in tackling the most urgent priorities. However, if we fail to zoom out and examine the underlying causes of these issues, systemic change will likely remain a distant and unobtainable reality. Today I'm in conversation with author Jeremy Lent who has been described as “one of the greatest thinkers of our age” and has written two powerful books which examine how the evolution of the dominant worldview of civilizations throughout history may contribute to the challenges of today. In this episode we explore:- - How our current worldview and culture are leading to chaos, conflict and crisis - What factors determine our worldview and what can cause our culture to shift over time - How a more integrated worldview could enable humanity and the natural world to thrive Tune in to find out how simple cultural shifts can help us to heal a divided society and transcend our current challenges.

“For things to change, WE have to be the change.” As Rishi Sunak and Liz Truss continue their UK hustings tour this week in the bid to replace Boris Johnson as Prime Minister in the UK, many are rapidly beginning to realise that it's time to put politics back into the hands of the people if we are to create change. No matter who is selected as the next Prime Minister, the same old problems will likely continue to perpetuate or worsen. This is why tonight I will publicly announce our own UK tour to address the fact politics is BROKEN and that the solutions we are looking for are in our hands.

In today's podcast, I am joined by Dr Michael Rectenwald, a former self-declared Marxist and Professor of Liberal Studies and Global Liberal Studies at NYU whose entire worldview was shifted when victimology, cancel-culture, de-platforming, and political correctness began to run amok on campus. We explore the origins of woke culture and how it has deviated from its beginnings and unravel some of the issues within the current culture wars as society becomes increasingly atomised.

Join me for a debrief of the Campout 2022 where over the course of 4 days of co-creation, inspiration and celebration the event intertwined personal and social change through a series of talks, panels and experiences. It is clear people are ready to step up and make a difference in the world around them whilst amplifying the heart-centred human qualities that are woefully absent within our political structures.
