Listen Again: No Map, No Shore, No Problem: How to Live Through This Moment

About this episode

Martha Beck discusses how to navigate societal upheaval and find stability during uncertain times.

In this special “Listen Again” episode of The Gathering Room, I talk about how to live through a time of societal upheaval and how we can still find our footing, even when the road ahead is uncertain. I explore how to navigate systemic collapse through Wayfinding: regulating our nervous systems, resisting panic and polarization, grieving fully, creating beauty, and building circles of community, integrity, and purposeful action. If you’ve been feeling alone or overwhelmed, this episode is for you.
