10-27-23 UNDAUNTED: Carolyn Baker
We know that countless humans are reeling with climate anxiety and experiencing fear, anger, grief, despair, dread, and understandably attempting to cope with the reality of potential human extinction with massive amounts of denial. This conversation offers an alternative to being consumed with either denial or despair. At its core is the existential issue of climate catastrophe and how to live into it with compassionate, clear-eyed, vibrant, awakened intention. To be ‘undaunted’ is the realization that we all will face moments of despair going forward, but knowledge and discovery of skills and practices for living in the face of humanity’s most unprecedented ordeals. Carolyn Baker brings forth a conversation as a wise elder and scared steward of not only our world, but also our humanity.
