Crossing the Chasm encapsulates two key elements: 1) An exploration of why are we so disconnected/what does connection mean; 2) How can we become mobilized to create ecological and human flourishing. Essentially we want to understand why is there such a chasm between where we are and where we want to go and how do we overcome it? The intent of this podcast is to create connection by envisioning a better world.
