A Millennial's Guide to Saving the World

#38 Space Exploration as a Tool for Personal and Global Evolution & Empathy with MaryLiz Bender


Listen Later

MaryLiz is a musician and experiential storyteller. She is the co-founder of Cosmic Perspective, which challenges the status quo of traditionally dry & inaccessible aspects of space exploration and instead uses art, performance and storytelling about space in an effort to inspire hope, empathy and appreciation for our home planet and unite humanity. Our conversation touches on MaryLiz's personal journey from religious fundamentalism to scientific wonder, the parallels between the Overview Effect & space travel to all forms of personal courage & transformation, the intersections of science & spirituality and the positives and negatives of embracing technological advance. A true podcast vortex if there ever was one!

MaryLiz's book recommendation: The Overview Effect by Frank White
