Thank you for this piece, which speaks with brevity and eloquence to the ‘inner work of collapse’ - the path that I’m on, and which informs everything I am called to do. Showing up with my heart and hands, as best as my imperfectly perfect human self can manage. I have trained as a 'Work That Reconnects' facilitator (based on Macy's work) and it has been a huge help to me too. I'm reading Undaunted at the moment, and have a dog-eared copy of 'Collapsing Consciously' from years ago, before I had the faintest idea what drew me to it. Thank you for being an Elder in this space; I deeply appreciate you and your work. Jody x
Carolyn, Thank you for this courageous and wise piece. Your articulation of the emotional and existential journey required to truly engage with the polycrisis resonates deeply. I particularly appreciate your emphasis on inner work, emotional intelligence, and the vital need for connection in facing these realities. It's a powerful and much-needed perspective. Best, John
