Jeff Aguy has always had a prophetic gift. Ever since he can remember, he has been experiencing and casting visions of the future. The problem is, having vision is usually not enough to change our environment, which is why Jeff has dedicated much of his life to understanding the dynamics of innovation ecosystems.

From his time at Harvard Innovation Lab, his current ecosystem building as an entrepreneur at 2043.co (among other ventures), and his work in the activism space, Jeff has dedicated his life to helping people tangibly build more equitable and abundant ecosystems.

This conversation with one of the most visionary leaders in Minnesota contains a wealth of knowledge, relevant especially for entrepreneurs looking to build sustainable, equitable ecosystems in their communities.

In this discussion we dive into the basics of human centered design, governance in the Metaverse, what happens when the majority of our time is spent in digital worlds, and how we can use technology and design to close the digital equity gap.

Over the last decade, the introduction of social media has fundamentally changed human psychology. Humans are looking for new ways to make sense of our environment, because the old centralized narrative is breaking down.

There is a lot of personal growth content on the internet, but we can't just "grow" anymore... we need to grow up… orienting our growth towards our highest spiritual potential.

Visionaries today are constrained by old measurements of success, business models, and social games that both limit our potential and keep us isolated, fighting each other for scarce resources. The emergence of WEB3 is an opportunity for leaders to rethink these models, rediscover our spiritual purpose, and create visionary brands with morally and financially aligned communities.

Ascendance is a new model of growth, an innovation studio, and a community for visionaries, diverse in thought, but unified around the purpose of building a more abundant future.

In this intro episode, I explain the concept of Ascendance, the set of technologies and cultural factors that got us here, and the opportunities ahead of us as we enter the WEB3 era.
