Navigating Selflessness in a Self-Centered World


Listen Later

In a time when the planet itself is sending distress signals — floods, fires, famine, and rising seas — humanity faces a brutal truth: "our greatest threat may not be nature, but our own nature."
"Navigating Selflessness in a Self-Centered World" is a captivating exploration of what happens when a species built for cooperation succumbs to obsession with personal gain. At the heart of every global crisis — from climate collapse to resource wars — lies the same corrosive question: “What’s in it for me?” This podcast invites listeners to confront how zero-sum thinking and tribal self-interest are pushing our shared future to the brink of uninhabitability.
But this isn't just about guilt or gloom. It’s about clarity. About daring to imagine another path. With accessible storytelling and real-world insight, each episode explores how radical selflessness — empathy, solidarity, shared responsibility — isn’t idealistic fantasy, but "our only way forward."
If you've ever wondered why, in a world so advanced, we seem so lost… or if you've felt that quiet urge to do more, care more, "be" more — this podcast is your compass. Because surviving the future may begin with the oldest idea of all: "we rise, or we fall, together."
