Listen "Everything is Broken"
Episode Synopsis
A mantra that we hear a lot today is that everything is broken. How do we respond when we hear that Canada is broken, or the climate is broken, or the relationship is broken and the only way to fix it is to throw everything out and start over? The notion that despair generalizes, and hope particularizes can be applied as a fundamental truth to help us look beyond the ‘everything is broken’ mentality to what is true about a situation. Looking at all sides of an issue in all its complexity helps to break it down into smaller components identifying those things that aren’t working and revealing those things that are working just fine. Listen as we share our thoughts and experiences on the topic that goes from fixing things, to complexity, to hope and despair and finally to being human.
