Get It Today and Unlock the Free Homegrown Humans Toolkit
So you can learn to boost your creativity, rekindle your relationships, revitalize your body, and answer once and for all, the questions of why we're here and what do we do now?
Part 1. Choose Your Own Apocalypse
The first, Choose Your Own Apocalypse, takes a look at our current Meaning Crisis –– where we are today, why it’s so hard to make sense of the world, what might be coming next, and what to do about it. It also makes a case that many of our efforts to cope, whether anxiety and denial, or tribalism and identity politics, are likely making things worse..
Part 2. The Alchemist Cookbook
Applies the creative firm IDEO’s design thinking to the Meaning Crisis.
Part 3. Ethical Cult Building
The final third of the book, Ethical Cult Building, focuses on the tricky nature of putting these kinds of experiences into gear and into culture—because, anytime in the past when we’ve figured out combinations of peak states and deep healing, we’ve almost always ended up with problematic culty communities.
