Hosts Lee Pera and Erika Casasola introduce themselves and the Building Beyond podcast.

They explain their backgrounds - Lee as a geographer and Erika as a curandera (a healer in the Mexican tradition) - and how their ancestral and spiritual practices have shaped their current work.

Lee and Erika discuss their collaboration and the genesis of Building Beyond, a network and platform for connecting people to build better futures through ancestral wisdom and emerging technologies.

The episode explores themes of ancestral connection, the limitations of current systems, and the importance of community in creating a world beyond what we're told is possible.
