It's a veritably flurry of brilliant ideas tonight with special guest and TEDx veteran Marc Winn.

Big governments, businesses, and tech firms tower over us all. Their respective broad-sweeping rules, massive scale, and micro-management fail to consider our unique individual humanity. Isolation, disconnection, disillusionment, and POLARIZATION leave people feeling abandoned. The tall towers are unstable. It's. Just. Not. Scalable.

So, why don't we just do the opposite?

That's the idea of Marc Winn, who co-pilots a small island nation called Guernsey. It's a place where people pick up their own litter and take care of each other, instead of dismissing it as "someone else's problem". Instead of tall towers that can fall, he envisions a group of small resilient communities. He calls it "fractal scaling" and in his opinion (and mine) it's the only way forward for a society so large and complex.

How do we start? Rather than fighting against the most stubborn bricks, he suggests finding the bricks that are already loose, so to speak. Help out people who already at their wits' end and willing to try something new. It's the same thing with my clients - They call me after they've been burned by a joker and are ready to try something that works.

It's reweaving ourselves back to each other. It's moving from Economies of Scale to Economies of Care. And it's possible right now. Check out marcwinn.com or dandelion.gg to find out more.

This is definitely one episode you'll want to share with friends.
