Climate Crisis and the Collective Shadow: Part One

The climate crisis and the collective shadow: In this episode, Debra and Dr. Rob Maldonado discuss the intersection between the collective human psyche and the ongoing climate crisis. We explore how our primitive instincts, medieval institutions and advanced technology have created a unique set of challenges in addressing environmental issues.

Drawing from Jungian psychology, we delve into the concept of the collective shadow and how our disconnection from nature drives consumerism and environmental degradation. This is the first episode of a two-part series that aims to reconnect us with the Great Mother archetype as a path to collective healing and environmental stewardship.
