Episode 62: Interview with Daniel Pinchbeck, author of How Soon Is Now: From Personal Initiation to Global Transformation

In this interview with author Daniel Pinchbeck, we explore the ultimate meaning of the psychological and civilizational crisis we are facing today. As humanities rapid evolution has disrupted our fragile ecosystems, we must consider a transition between an old world and way of living to the next world, our future societies. Daniel describes his ideas for regenerative or post-growth societies, where an emphasis is placed on the things we can grow together, indefinitely, rather than our current systems that do not produce happiness. We consider ways to enhance regenerative practices and question whether core issues in love have led to corruption.

Daniel Pinchbeck is a writer, author and blogger. His works include Breaking Open the Head (2002), 2012: The Return of Quetzalcoatl (2006), and most recently How Soon is Now (2017). He was the executive director of the think tank Center for Planetary Culture, and launched the web magazine Reality Sandwich and co-founded Evolver.net.
