Send us a textI am delighted to introduce to you, Perry Knoppert, aka Dr. OctopusPerry is pretty hard to pin down. He is an artist, he has worked in conventional industries. He's lived in China and Belgium. He's been homeless.  He has ADHD and dyslexia. But most importantly he has founded a community I think you'll enjoy and want to join: the Octopus movement, a global network of non-linear thinkers.By now, the network has grown to almost 3000 members from over 63 countries - and they're approaching problem-solving in unconventional and creative ways.In this interview we cover a very wide range of topics, including :parenting neurodivergent kids and fighting the school systemhaving dyslexiaplants, poetrydrugsartnot accepting the status quomushrooms and the mycelium  how to build a community and interestingly whether or not we should gate-keep it. teacher tortureteaching nonlinear thinking in schools, and all the things we would love to see differently in this world and how we can be agents for change. I'm sure this interview with Perry aka dr. Octopus will inspire you as much as it has inspired me. Resources mentioned in this Episode: You can find out all about the Octopus Movement (and join it) here:https://www.theoctopusmovement.org/At the end of the podcast, I ask Perry about people who inspire him and who deserve a lot more attention and one of the people he mentions is Haley Joy - you can find her website here: https://hayleyjoy.com/ Want to be the first to hear about new episodes and other free content that will help you manage your smart mind?
