Honest Conversation About Living in a Polycrisis

October 22, 2024 • Tracy Holemeyer & Kim Moran • Season 4 • Episode 8

On this episode of the Another Way To See It podcast, we talk about what living in a polycrisis feels like to us.

Polycrisis is generally understood to mean: a cluster of related global risks with compounding effects such that the overall impact exceeds the sum of each part.

Today, the world’s simultaneous and overlapping crises include a mounting climate crisis, wars, inflation shock, democratic dysfunction, health crisis, banking, housing , and food instabilities, and much more.

The feeling that life is extra hard or harder than it has been in the past is real and when we name and contextualize our experience we begin to understand that it’s not just us or in our heads, life is hard. There are certain truths that we need to face. Burying our heads in the sand is not going to stop these things from happening. How do we connect with our selves, and communities in these times? What kind of thinking and behaviors move the needle in a positive direction?

Call to action: in honor of Indigenous People’s Day please consider donating time, money, or resources to one of your local indigenous communities.

Indigenous causes receive just 23 cents out of every $100 of of philanthropic giving in the United States. Moreover, the latest data on the wealth of Native people in the United States shows that for every $1 of wealth a white American holds a Native American has eight cents.
