This week I reflect on a recent visit to Hanoi, Vietnam, and how a simple experience of crossing the street turned into a very healing and eye-opening lesson in trust and interdependence. We’ll talk about how in the US, when it comes to navigating traffic and driving, we are taught to assume we are invisible. Drive defensively. Cross streets assuming no one sees you. In Hanoi, it was the opposite. If you wanted to do something as basic as cross the street, you have to assume you would be seen, and that people cared and would take care. I was able to literally walk into oncoming traffic amongst strangers - something we can’t do in many industrialized growth societies like the US. We explore the vulnerability and beauty of how humans can move through chaos together when we come from a place of interdependence and interbeing.

You will learn:

// What is possible when we embrace interdependence and the fact that we are connected to everything

// The gifts that taking risks by being vulnerable and trusting others can bring to us (while using discernment, of course!)

// How we can find healing in interdependence and trust in one another

// Why so many industrialized growth societies are so far from interdependent interbeing, and how we can offset that
