One World in a New World with Perry Knoppert - Founder & CEO, The Octopus Movement - Multipotentialite
Asked how and where his journey inside he relates that a teacher told his father he couldn't read him. He was kind of proud of that, as was his father. It took him many years to overcome the labels and enjoy his weirdness. Listen in to the journey.
His story about trying to find the balance between being cool or being weird, accepted or outcast, he shares a great reflection with examples. He felt lost between the inner drive to just be who he was and the outer conditions and the desire to fit in. Diversity cannot be simplified; it's diversity.
We all have events that trigger our rise from the shadows of our life. Perry is no different and his sharing of his journey will certainly sound familiar to some, perhaps in your own trip. Others will certainly be inspired by the authenticity of how he describes his 'LSD' trip. That ought to make you curious.
Perry makes the distinction between a mycelium network vs a community. Why? His description of the difference and the advantages of the network is enlightening, perhaps apocalyptic. He believes there are many non-linear thinkers who see things from multiple angles and can converse about them in psychological safety and intellectual humility.
Perry mentions the interesting perspective of he and Zen being biologically connected through the internet... fiber optic cable stretched across the ocean and transmitting 0s and 1s that bring us face to face from afar, sharing a common space between us. Now that is magic, eh? No longer. Imagine what other magic might be understood through critical thinking and non-linear activity across the world.
Asked how he sees the evolution of linear and non-linear thinkers learning to get along, he starts with expectations, both of self and others. What would happen if we learned how to bridge the gap and supported a natural process through deeper conversations and reflection?
Perry also shares that he's found that when people are a bit fearless, their curiosity diminishes. How can you increase your curiosity about life, about you, about living fully and a better world?
Parting wisdom... tune in and listen. You'll love it.
