Any Human Power: Thinking Thrutopia instead of Dystopia with Manda Scott

Thrutopia "is the art of writing engaging route-maps through to a world we'd all be proud to leave to future generations." Manda Scott's new book Any Human Power is an amazing exercise in Thrutopia. Manda and Andrea meet here for the first time to explore transformative ideas beyond traditional dichotomies. This episode delves into shamanic practices, the concept of Thrutopia, and systemic evolution as expressed in Manda's podcast 'Accidental Gods' and her transformative new book 'Any Human Power' which introduces new paths forward, some inspired by frameworks that already exist, like Joanna Macy's Three Pillars of the Great Turning and Riversimple's innovative governance models. The two explore the crucial role of storytelling and community in fostering sustainable change and finding new pathways for leveraging technology thoughtfully and promoting a deeper sense of connectedness for a more inclusive and supportive society.
