No More Rat Race. Creating a world without bullshit jobs - with renegade economist, Della Duncan

What if our work made our hearts sing every day? What if everyone were paid what they were actually worth? What if the profits went into the community, to build the better world our hearts know is possible? How would that actually work? Let’s find out!

Renegade Economist and Right Livelihood coach, Della Duncan, has spent most of her professional life exploring the ideas that might transform our culture into the more beautiful, flourishing - fun, joyful, - safe - world our hearts know is possible. In this deep-dive interview, we explore the furthest edges of what our world might look and feel like if we were able to reconfigure our economy so that every transaction was predicated on the flourishing of the human and more-than-human worlds. From Manfred Max-Neef to the Post Growth Foundation, we explore the ideas at the cutting edge of human potential.
