Podcasts about capitalist

In this every-other-month presentation, Professor Wolff presents insights and analysis on the decline of the capitalist system as evident in four key periods of U.S. history. From The Legacy of World War 2 from 1945-1974, to the petrodollar boom from 1974 to 2026, the rise of the global south since 1945, and China's relentless rise from 1945 to the present, Professor Wolff shows how these examples are evidence enough that it is time to do better than capitalism. The lecture ends with an overview of the possibilities for a future in which socialism is a viable replacement for the declining capitalism plaguing the world today.   Presented by Democracy at Work and the Left Forum   Special messages to our audience:  Please help sponsor Global Capitalism by becoming a monthly donor to Democracy at Work.

What does it truly mean to be accountable as a business leader, and why does it matter now more than ever?In this episode of The Conscious Capitalists, hosts Timothy Henry and Raj Sisodia sit down with Kate Adams, Chief Impact Officer at Conscious Capitalism, Inc. and author of Accountability Under Fire, for a thoughtful exploration of one of the most pressing challenges facing modern leadership.As organizations navigate increasing scrutiny from employees, customers, investors, and the public, accountability has become more than a values-based aspiration. It is now a critical business imperative. Drawing from her new book and decades of experience advising leaders across the business, nonprofit, and social impact sectors, Kate shares a practical framework for understanding what accountability looks like in action and why so many organizations struggle to achieve it.Throughout the conversation, Kate introduces her Accountability Ladder, a model that helps leaders assess where their organizations stand and what it takes to build accountability into the culture and decision-making process. Together, Timothy, Raj, and Kate explore the challenges of balancing competing stakeholder interests, the relationship between accountability and conscious leadership, and why creating win-win-win outcomes often requires far more creativity than leaders realize.The discussion also examines the role of boards and CEOs in shaping accountability, the importance of organizational trust, and how leaders can respond when mistakes inevitably occur. From corporate apologies and political engagement to emerging technologies such as AI and blockchain, this episode offers a timely look at how accountability is evolving in an increasingly transparent world.Listeners will gain insights into:The difference between accountability, responsibility, and traditional CSR initiativesHow to identify and prioritize the stakeholders most affected by your decisionsThe five stages of organizational accountability and what separates reactive companies from truly accountable onesWhy creating win-win-win outcomes is often harder than it soundsHow board and CEO alignment can strengthen or undermine accountability effortsHow AI and emerging technologies are changing the way organizations measure and manage impactThe connection between accountability, conscious leadership, and long-term organizational healthAnd more!Whether you're leading a company, serving on a board, or seeking to build a more values-driven organization, this episode offers practical wisdom on how accountability can become a source of trust, resilience, and sustainable success.If you enjoy this podcast, would you consider leaving a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify?

How do you reinvent a legacy retail brand for an entirely new generation without losing its identity in the process?In this episode of The Conscious Capitalists, hosts Timothy Henry and Raj Sisodia sit down with Brieane Olson, CEO of PacSun, to explore one of retail's most compelling transformation stories. Under Brianna's leadership, PacSun evolved from a struggling mall retailer into a digital first, purpose driven brand approaching $1 billion in revenue by embracing a bold philosophy: co-creation.Drawing from her new book, Co-Created, and a recently released Harvard Business School case study, Brieane shares how PacSun built deep cultural relevance with Gen Z and Gen Alpha by inviting young consumers directly into the brand building process. From the company's Youth Advisory Council to viral TikTok moments that moved hundreds of thousands of products organically, this conversation unpacks how listening became PacSun's greatest competitive advantage.But this episode goes beyond marketing strategy. Brieane opens up about her personal leadership evolution, the role of purpose in navigating uncertainty, and why conscious leadership requires both humility and courage. Together, Timothy, Raj, and Brieane explore the tension between brand control and customer participation, the challenges of sustainability in youth retail, and how AI is reshaping the future of commerce.Listeners will gain insights into:How PacSun transformed from a legacy retailer into a culturally relevant Gen Z brandWhy co-creation is a business strategy, not just a marketing tacticThe role of PacSun's Youth Advisory Council in shaping products, campaigns, and company directionHow a single organic TikTok moment helped sell more than 200,000 pairs of jeansWhy purpose and co-creation must work together to create authentic brand trustHow PacSun is approaching AI adoption across the organization while remaining intentionally human centeredThe operational challenges of moving at the speed of culture in modern retailWhether you're leading a consumer brand, navigating organizational transformation, or exploring what conscious leadership looks like in practice, this episode offers a powerful case study in how companies can grow by listening more deeply to the communities they serve.If you enjoy this podcast, would you consider leaving a review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes?

Professor Sean McMeekin explains that Joseph Stalin's core strategy was to allow capitalist "monster nations" like France, Germany, and England to exhaust each other before he intervened to expand the Russian Empire. This vision was realized through Harry Hopkins' 1941 mission to Moscow, which established a direct communication channel between FDR and Stalin. Hopkins shocked Stalin by promising that the United States would provide "whatever he wants" with no conditions applied, even sacking military observers who requested access to information. This created a "peculiarly one-sided" relationship where the U.S. fueled and armed the USSR without demanding assistance against Japan. (1/8)1875 BAKU OIL FIELDS

What if your company could think and move like an octopus, with intelligence distributed across the entire organization instead of concentrated at the top?In this episode of The Conscious Capitalists, hosts Timothy Henry and Raj Sisodia sit down with Jana Werner (AWS Enterprise Strategist and expert in Uncertainty Dynamics) and Phil Le-Brun (AWS Enterprise Strategist and former International CIO at McDonald's) to explore their groundbreaking new framework: The Octopus Organization. Together, they unpack what it takes to build adaptive, resilient businesses in a world defined by AI acceleration, geopolitical instability, and constant disruption.Drawing from deep experience across global enterprises and cutting edge research, Jana and Phil challenge the outdated "Tin Man" model of rigid, top down organizations. Instead, they introduce a living, breathing alternative built on distributed intelligence, empowered decision making, and the ability to continuously evolve from within. At the heart of this conversation is a powerful truth: organizations that thrive in uncertainty aren't just more efficient. They are more human.This episode goes beyond theory, offering a practical and actionable playbook for leaders ready to rethink how their organizations operate, adapt, and grow in an unpredictable world.Listeners will gain insights into:Why traditional organizational structures are breaking under the pressure of AI and global volatilityThe "Octopus Organization" model and how distributed intelligence unlocks adaptabilityThe three defining traits of high functioning organizations: Clarity, Ownership, and CuriosityWhy "empowerment" often masks control and what true ownership really looks likeReal world examples from companies like McDonald's, AstraZeneca, Ferrari, Amazon, and NetflixThe hidden anti patterns that quietly undermine culture, trust, and performanceWhy psychological safety must be built locally, not declared globallyHow to approach AI adoption through a human centered organizational lensPractical first steps for CEOs and leaders looking to evolve their companies in the next 12 to 24 monthsWhether you're leading a global enterprise, scaling a startup, or navigating transformation within your team, this episode offers a bold new lens on leadership.

May Day 2026: Capitalist crisis, war and the international class struggle

In this episode, Oden speaks to sociology professor Remo Erdosain about the new U.S. embargo on Cuba. Remo describes the six-decades-long history of imperialist attacks on the island, their devastating human and economic toll, and the goal of these efforts: Capitalist restoration, and erasing the gains of the 1959 Revolution. Importantly, Remo explains how we must support the Cuban working class — without supporting the program of the Diaz-Canel administration — in leading this fight. And from outside of Cuba, we must build a movement to demand an end to this monstrous embargo. The struggle of the Cuban people is the struggle of the global working class. Learn More:- As Trump Strangles Cuba, We Need a Movement to Confront Imperialist Aggression and the Blockade- Cuba Needs Oil, Not Symbolic Solidarity- Down with the Imperialist Siege on Cuba- In Defense of the Cuban RevolutionSupport this podcast on Patreon Follow us on social media!

In a world flooded with content, credentials, and competition, most people are still playing the wrong game. On this episode of Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different, we sat down with Jessica Miller on the It’s Your Offer Podcast to challenge one of the most deeply held myths in business: that success comes from being better. According to Lochhead, just better is a losing strategy, and in the age of AI, it might be a fatal one. The real game, the one most people never learn to play, is about being genuinely, unmistakably different. This conversation covers the origins of category design, the seismic shift AI is creating in the knowledge economy, and why the entrepreneurs who thrive will be those who stop competing and start creating their own space entirely as Creator Capitalists. You're listening to Christopher Lochhead: Follow Your Different. We are the real dialogue podcast for people with a different mind. So get your mind in a different place, and hey ho, let's go.   The Problem With Playing Someone Else’s Game Most people enter careers and build businesses by scanning the landscape, finding where demand already exists, and then trying to outcompete everyone else already operating there. Lochhead calls this the existing market trap. It feels logical because the demand is already proven, but the brutal reality is that business is largely a winner-take-all game. Research from Category Pirates found that the category leader captures 76% of total market value, leaving everyone else fighting over the scraps. This is not just a tech industry phenomenon. Whether you are a realtor, a restaurant owner, or a consultant, the human brain defaults to simplification under overwhelming choice. People remember one or two names in any given space. The goal is not to be one of many options but to be the only logical choice, and that only happens when you stop trying to be better and start designing something categorically different.   Discovering Your Different in a World That Rewards Conformity One of the more honest parts of the conversation is Lochhead’s acknowledgment that being different is genuinely hard for most people. Human beings are wired for safety in numbers. Conformity is not weakness; it is evolution. The instinct to blend in kept our ancestors alive, and that same instinct today keeps most people stuck inside categories someone else defined. Lochhead’s own path was shaped by having no choice but to be different. With five or six learning differences and no high school diploma, he could not find a place that fit him, so he had to make one. That experience gave him what he describes as a healthy disregard for the status quo. The invitation he extends to others is not to manufacture false uniqueness but to stop apologizing for the ways you already do not fit, and to connect that genuine difference to a problem worth solving for people you genuinely care about.   Why AI Makes Different the Only Defensible Advantage The conversation takes a sharp turn when Lochhead explains what AI is actually doing to the economy, and it is more disruptive than most people have processed. Generative AI is rapidly making existing knowledge close to free. Everything that used to make a knowledge worker valuable, the accumulation and application of specialized information, is now available to anyone with an internet connection and a prompt. The second wave is even more consequential. AI agents are automating execution at a scale that was previously unimaginable, with some entrepreneurs already running fully agent-operated businesses generating millions in revenue. In this environment, competing on knowledge or execution becomes a race to the bottom. What cannot be automated, replicated, or commoditized is a genuinely original point of view, a unique framework, and the courage to name a problem no one else has named. That is what Lochhead means by creator capitalist, someone who turns their thinking into assets that compound over time rather than trading time and credentials for a shrinking return.

What happens when AI disruption collides with the urgent need for human-centered leadership?In this episode of The Conscious Capitalists' Future-Focused Summer Series, hosts Timothy Henry and Dr. Neha Sangwan are joined by Christine Heckart - tech industry veteran, former CEO of Scalyr, senior executive at Microsoft and Cisco, and now founder of Xapa, an AI-powered leadership development platform. Together, they dive into how leaders can guide their organizations through radical uncertainty, exponential change, and the AI revolution without leaving their people behind.Christine pulls from 30 years in Silicon Valley to reveal why 90% of AI transformation projects are failing - not because of technology, but because of people. She explains how leaders must anchor teams in trust, purpose, and psychological safety, while scaling leadership development across every level of the organization. The conversation highlights why human connection, empathy, and conscious capitalism are the real differentiators in an AI-driven world.This is more than a discussion on technology - it's a playbook for leading with both innovation and heart in a time when businesses face unprecedented change.Listeners will gain insights into:Why most AI transformation projects fail - and how to avoid the trapThe difference between trust and psychological safety (and why both matter)Practical ways to stabilize teams during radical disruptionHow to scale leadership development across every level of the companyWhy empathy and conscious capitalism are now business-critical skillsHow CEOs can balance AI-powered innovation with human judgmentWhy people-first leadership is the key to unlocking AI's potentialWhether you're a CEO wrestling with AI disruption, a leader striving to build resilient teams, or a founder seeking to combine innovation with purpose, this episode offers a powerful guide to leading with clarity, courage, and humanity in a time of radical change.**If you enjoy this podcast, would you consider leaving a review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes?

The fragility of the monopoly capitalist economic model is being revealed as the oppressed begin to refuse their cooperation. Caught between an imminent financial meltdown and a rising oppressed world headed by Russia and China, the United States and its allies and stooges have launched their war against Iran in a desperate gamble aimed at reviving their fortunes and re-establishing their hegemony. But in the narrow and shallow waters of the Hormuz strait, the entire supertanker that is monopoly capitalism is being holed below the waterline, and no amount of bluster is going to be able to shore up the damage that has already been done.

Back in February, I had the pleasure of interviewing business coach and author Marisa Guthrie for the first episode of Season Two of The Awakening Woman Podcast.Marisa describes herself as a “reluctant capitalist” — someone who recognises the realities of the economic systems we live within while also questioning the extractive values they often promote. Her work explores the complex relationship between women, wealth and capitalism, and in this episode, we talk through the tension many purpose-led women feel between profit and purpose, and what it might look like to build wealth without replicating systems of harm.This conversation touches on themes of responsibility, sovereignty, burnout and the ways women are often conditioned to extract from themselves in order to succeed.We also explore how alternative approaches — rooted in community, ecosystems and collaboration — might offer a different path forward.This is a rich and reflective conversation about the deeper questions surrounding money, work and what it means to create sustainable change in the world.In This Episode We Speak About:* Why many women feel conflicted about wealth and profit* The concept of “self-extraction” and why it leads to burnout* How capitalism shapes the way we think about success and work* The myth of bootstrapping and the power of networks and relationships* Why building wealth comes with responsibility* The importance of caring for ourselves before trying to change the world* Rethinking individual success through an ecosystem lensJust below, you'll find a handy crib sheet of the key people, terms and ideas mentioned in this episode (thanks, Claude).About Marisa GuthrieMarisa Guthrie is a business coach and author of The Reluctant Capitalist.With over 30 years at the sharp edge of ethical enterprise as a serial founder, CEO, Managing Director of a cross-party think tank, and advisor to an All-Party Parliamentary Group on micro business, she has seen what purpose-driven business looks like when it works, and when it quietly collapses under the weight of a misaligned model.She now supports solo and micro entrepreneurs in navigating the space between profit and purpose as they build businesses aligned with their values.She brings a systemic lens to business, helping them generate wealth ethically and sustainably without replicating the extractive patterns often embedded in modern entrepreneurship.You can find Marisa on Substack.The Reluctant Capitalist Book and October SummitMarisa will be hosting her Make Money, Make Change summit in October, which will go deeper into the ideas behind the book, in conversation with others who are also building differently. Marisa is offering a free summit ticket to those who purchase a copy of her book.

 What happens to the middle class when AI eats the job market faster than policy can respond? This episode unpacks the Tensor Economy — a working framework for routing AI-generated wealth back to the people instead of letting it concentrate in a handful of corporate hands. We walk through the three core mechanisms (Compute Dividend, Shared AI Equity, Automatic Stabilizers), the Market Access Lock that stops capital flight, and the Public Trust AI layer that disciplines private providers the same way municipal water keeps bottled water honest. Not socialism. Not communism. Capitalist infrastructure built for a post-labor era. If you want to understand what's coming and what stops it from going sideways, start here.  

There's a line we've quietly crossed where Big Tech isn't just tracking what you click—it's listening, analyzing, and predicting what you're thinking before you even say it out loud, and in this conversation with Ian and Shawn on The Whiskey Capitalist Podcast, we break down how companies like Apple, Google, and others are building detailed behavioral profiles through your phone, your apps, and even your conversations, all while calling it “convenience,” and yet Scripture reminds us, “For nothing is hidden that will not be made manifest” (Luke 8:17, ESV), which raises a sobering question—if everything is being revealed, who actually holds that power today, and what are they doing with it, because this is exactly why we're building Pickax—to restore ownership, privacy, and real human connection in a world increasingly shaped by algorithms that don't just reflect reality, but quietly reshape it.Follow The Whiskey Capitalist Podcast on Pickax - https://pickax.com/whiskeycappodFollow Shawn Cav on Pickax - https://pickax.com/imshawncavFollow Jeff Dornik on Pickax - https://pickax.com/jeffdornikTune into The Jeff Dornik Show LIVE daily at 7pm ET on Rumble.

Timothy Henry and Raj Sisodia interview the Honorable Mary K. Bush, President of Bush International and a veteran executive, corporate director, and government official who served three U.S. presidents, including as the U.S. representative on the International Monetary Fund Board during the 1980s debt crisis. Known as “Ms. Free Market,” Bush explains her advocacy for reduced regulation, pro-growth tax systems, and policies designed to retain and attract capital, as well as her role in helping create the IMF's Structural Adjustment Facility to address deeper barriers to entrepreneurship beyond fiscal and monetary policy.To see the full video podcast, check out the Conscious Capitalists YouTube channel here.Bush explores real-world examples, including lessons from Ghana, the shareholder-versus-stakeholder debate, and how boards can drive long-term value by investing in customers, employees, and talent development, pointing to Marriott's culture as a case in point. She connects social responsibility to individual freedom, discusses the link between diversity and performance through stronger risk identification and decision-making, and addresses the current backlash surrounding DEI.She also shares the mission behind Spark the Journey, her mentoring initiative supporting low-income youth, and reflects on growing up under Jim Crow in Birmingham. Throughout the conversation, Bush underscores the importance of candid workplace dialogue, principled leadership, and the courage to build institutions that expand both economic opportunity and human dignity.If you enjoy this podcast, would you consider leaving a review on Apple Podcasts?

The Supreme Court heard oral arguments in the case of Trump v. Barbara regarding President Trump's executive order issued on his first day in office, which seeks to limit birthright citizenship under the 14th Amendment by denying automatic U.S. citizenship to children born in the United States if their parents are undocumented or present on a temporary basis. Justices from across the ideological spectrum asked pointed questions about the order's interpretation of the phrase "subject to the jurisdiction thereof" in the 14th Amendment and whether the executive branch can unilaterally alter long-standing practice and precedent on citizenship. President Trump attended the arguments in person, the first time a sitting president has done so. Lower courts previously blocked the order as unconstitutional. What will the Supreme Court's decision mean for the future of birthright citizenship in the United States? We also cover: Artemis II successful launch.

This week on Economic Update, Professor Wolff discusses the flaws in the argument that profit is an appropriate, just return to the risk taken by a capitalist who invests. The critique focuses on (1) what it means that a capitalist can withhold means of production from production, and (2) how workers, their families, and communities also take risks in any productive enterprise yet get no profits, thereby invalidating the justification of profit as a reward for risk. In the second half, he shows that technical innovations such as AI do not cause unemployment; rather, the capitalist system does. An example is offered of how AI could be installed to advantage every enterprise's majority—its employees—rather than profit its employers (a minority in enterprises).   The d@w Team Economic Update with Richard D.

What happens when one of Google's top AI strategists also happens to be a yogi, author, and self-described “Happy Human”?In this episode of The Conscious Capitalists' Summer Series, hosts Timothy Henry and Dev Patnaik speak with Gopi Kallayil, Chief Business Strategist for AI at Google. Together, they explore how businesses can navigate radical uncertainty in an age of exponential technological disruption and why AI should be seen as a tool for human advancement rather than a threat.From Google's pivots (“search-first” to “mobile-first” to “AI-first”) to lessons on experimentation, failure, and 10x thinking, Gopi pulls back the curtain on how the tech giant adapts in the face of constant change. He also offers a deeply human perspective: blending insights from his books The Happy Human and The Internet to the Inner-Net, his yoga practice, and his spiritual explorations of what he calls AI, NI (natural intelligence), and DI (divine intelligence).This conversation isn't just about artificial intelligence - it's about what it means to stay human, conscious, and purpose-driven while riding the waves of disruption.Listeners will gain insights into:Why moments of disruption are opportunities for nonlinear breakthroughsHow Google cultivates a culture of experimentation, iteration, and failing wellThe importance of 10x thinking over incremental improvementsWhy companies should start with business strategy - not an “AI strategy”How AI is already transforming industries like healthcare, retail, and entertainmentWhat AI, natural intelligence, and divine intelligence can teach us about consciousnessPractical steps leaders can take to embrace uncertainty and future-proof their organizationsWhether you're a CEO, entrepreneur, or simply curious about the intersection of AI and consciousness, this episode offers both strategic guidance and soulful wisdom.**If you enjoy this podcast, would you consider leaving a review on Apple Podcasts or Spotify.

SWall Street Journal,  CNN, Fortune, Barrons, HGTV Frank McKinney is a true modern-day Renaissance man who has pushed the limits of success in his every endeavor. His early years were not very promising: upon attending his 4th high school in 4 years (he was asked to leave the first 3), and seven stints in juvenile detention, he earned his high school diploma with a 1.8 GPA. With $50 in his pocket and without the benefit of further education, he left his native Indiana for Florida in search of his life's highest calling.Today, Frank's life is a testament to the power of aspiration to create a completely new reality. As a real estate artist he has created and sold 44 oceanfront mansions on spec, with an average price of $14 million. Frank recently announced he was un-retiring and coming back to create more real estate artistry! See two short films that were just made about Frank's exciting comeback!As a philanthro-capitalist, Frank has built 30 self-sustaining villages over the last 20 years in Haiti, providing 13,600+ children and their families with homes, schools, clinics, community centers, churches, renewable food and clean water, and means to support themselves.A best-selling author, actor, and keynote speaker, Frank has written seven books in six genres, with the title, premise and cover for his 8th book in his 7th genre being revealed at an exciting stunt Frank will perform on Friday the 13th of January, 2023! Frank has starred in four movies, and keynoted before audiences of ten to ten thousand around the world.Physically, Frank has pushed the limit of his body by racing in the Badwater 135-mile Ultramarathon 12x in the scorching summer in Death Valley, California, a race referred to by National Geographic as “the world's toughest footrace.”As with all of his books, Frank wrote his latest bestseller Aspire! in his Delray Beach, Florida, oceanfront treehouse office that has spectacular views and includes a bamboo desk, shower, bathroom, sink, air-conditioning, hardwood floors, cedar walls, a loft with a king size bed, and a suspension bridge to the master bedroom in the main house—that's Frank's commute to and from work!Today Frank and Nilsa, his wife of 34 years, split their time between Delray Beach and their “glass cottage” in the mountains of Canton, North Carolina. They enjoy visiting their 24 year-old daughter, Laura, in New York City, where she started and runs StrataBrand, a brand strategy firm.© 2026 All Rights Reserved© 2026 Building Abundant Success!!Join Me on ~ iHeart Media @ https://tinyurl.com/iHeartBASSpot Me on Spotify: https://tinyurl.com/yxuy23ba

8. Professor Evan Ellis analyzes the reversal of the "pink tide" in South America, highlighted by the election of conservative capitalist Jose Antonio Kastin Chile. He discusses the cooling relations between the U.S. and Brazil's President Lula, who is currently in a statistical tie for re-election with Flavio Bolsonaro. Lula's recent condemnations of U.S. military strikes and his deepening ties with BRICS partners have alienated the Trumpadministration, leading to the cancellation of his planned White House visit.

In “AI Psychosis vs. AI Awakening,” Vince Fakhoury Horn argues that the same biological machinery enabling AI-induced delusion also enables AI-assisted awakening, and introduces his Interspective.ai approach — a Middle Way practice of engaging with AI as a potential partner in wisdom, thus avoiding the extremes of both Materialism (matter is fundamental) and Idealism (consciousness is fundamental).

Timothy Henry and Raj Sisodia interview Harvard professor and author Rebecca Henderson about her book Reimagining Capitalism in a World on Fire and why purpose-driven, multi-stakeholder firms can outperform yet remain hard to implement because they require deep investments in strategy, structure, and human systems. To see the full video podcast, check out the Conscious Capitalists YouTube channel hereHenderson connects climate change, inequality, and democratic erosion to shareholder primacy, arguing for stronger democratic institutions, reducing money in politics, and grassroots rebuilding of trust. She emphasizes leaders' inner work, “kindness and math,” and the ability to disagree respectfully as foundations for high-trust, innovative organizations—especially important in an AI era. Henderson recounts her shift from engineering to organizational change and climate work, lessons from board service, and her teaching evolution from “Reimagining Capitalism” to “Reweaving Ourselves,” including the role of retreats in sustaining courageous leadership.If you enjoy this podcast, would you consider leaving a review on Apple Podcasts.

What happens when a global brand famous for saving the planet from itself decides to challenge the very DNA of corporate leadership?In this first episode of The Conscious Capitalists' Summer Series, hosts Timothy Henry and Kate Adams speak with Charles Conn, Chair of Patagonia, co-founder of Monograph, and former senior partner at McKinsey. Together, they explore how conscious enterprises can thrive in a world of radical uncertainty — from geopolitical shocks to disruptive technologies — by rethinking the way leadership works.Charles takes us inside Patagonia's approach to leading with purpose, agility, and trust, showing why the old top-down, control-heavy playbook is no longer fit for a future that demands resilience, innovation, and courage. From breaking hierarchies to empowering frontline teams, he reveals how to build organizations that adapt fast and stay true to their values.This is more than a conversation about business — it's a blueprint for a new era of leadership. Charles shares stories and strategies from the boardroom to the trailhead, illustrating how authenticity, curiosity, and conscious capitalism can create lasting impact in both business and society.Listeners will gain insights into:Why traditional leadership models are collapsing — and what's replacing themPatagonia's trust-first culture and how it fuels innovationHow conscious capitalism drives agility in uncertain marketsThe role of curiosity in making better decisionsPractical ways to shift from hierarchical control to empowered teamsBalancing purpose with performance without losing momentumHow leaders can thrive — not just survive — in disruptive timesWhether you're a CEO looking to future-proof your organization, a startup founder hungry for agile growth, or a leader seeking to balance profit with purpose, this episode offers a rare inside look at what it takes to lead consciously in the face of unprecedented change.**If you enjoy this podcast, would you consider leaving a review on Apple Podcasts/iTunes?

The Pop Mythologist and his guest, author and psychology professor Alex Langley, revisit RoboCop (1987) as a political, mythical, and psychological parable about how capitalism privatizes everything, offers false solutions to the very problems it creates, dehumanizes human beings, and lays the groundwork for fascism. Drawing connections to the current actions and tactics of ICE, and the ongoing AI takeover, they also explore why protecting and reclaiming our humanity is a form of resistance in these times. ⚠️Spoilers for: RoboCop (1987) and RoboCop (2014) ✅ No Spoilers for: All other works mentioned Follow Alex Langley at: Instagram: @therocketllama https://www.instagram.com/therocketllama/ Threads: @therocketllama https://www.threads.com/@therocketllama?xmt=AQF0-7f6xIpQJVf66ms1AALoCuIZNzOs1bRdOfL4zVEnUJI Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/Rocketllama Official website https://www.rocketllama.com/

Recently, the Department of Justice released millions of files from disgraced financier and pedophile Jeffrey Epstein. Since their release, part of the discussion has revolved around the way Jewishness appears in the files. Epstein and his friends make clannish jokes about Jews and “goyim,” many of them simultaneously self-deprecating and chauvinistic. Epstein himself is extremely interested in genetics, sending out a number of DNA Kits to Jews and non-Jews alike, and referencing a natural Ashkenazi intelligence. The files also show close—and sometimes criminal—relationships to a number of prominent Jewish men. These details, along with information about Epstein's role as fixer for former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak, have fueled conspiracy theories about Jewish power. But what do we do with a story whose real-life details are so fitted to antisemitic conspiracy? In this episode of On the Nose, editor-in-chief Arielle Angel speaks with author, thinker, and activist Naomi Klein about how to make sense of the capitalist conspiracy outlined in the files, and the grave importance of holding our depraved elites accountable.Thanks to Jesse Brenneman for producing and to Nathan Salsburg for the use of his song “VIII (All That Were Calculated Have Passed).”Media Mentioned and Further ReadingDoppelganger: A Trip Into the Mirror World by Naomi KleinHarsha Walia on Epstein and sexual violenceA collection of Epstein's comments on “Jews” and “goyim” from Tikkun Olam“Eugenics Isn't Dead—It's Thriving in Tech,” Julia Métraux, Mother Jones“Jeffrey Epstein's assistant ordered so many 23andMe kits, the company asked why,” Ariana Bindman, SFGate“The Myth of the Chosen Nation: The Colonial Period,” Richard T.

In this deeply reflective conversation, Raj Sisodia and Nalima Bhat explore why even the smartest, most successful leaders can suddenly find themselves stuck, hitting an invisible ceiling that strategy, coaching, or performance optimization alone cannot break. Drawing from their new book, Healing Leaders: A Manual for Life and Leadership Recovery, they make the case that leadership development without inner healing is fundamentally incomplete.To see the full video podcast, check out the Conscious Capitalists YouTube channel hereTogether, we unpack how unhealed psychological wounds quietly shape decision making, relationships, and organizational culture, often sabotaging leaders at the very height of their success. Raj and Nalima introduce their seven step framework for healing and integration, Know, Love, Be, Choose, Express, Complete, and Heal, guiding leaders on a journey that begins with self awareness and ends with genuine transformation.The conversation moves into the distinction between post traumatic stress and post traumatic growth, and why real growth requires what they describe as going down to the basement of consciousness before rising to the next level of leadership. Nalima shares insights on integrating masculine and feminine energies, elder and child wisdom, and embracing the role of the wise fool of tough love, a leader grounded in both compassion and truth.At its core, this episode challenges the idea that leadership is only about external results. As Raj puts it, you cannot have a healing organization with a leader who is not healed. The more leaders do their own inner work, the more they create cultures that foster trust, psychological safety, and collective flourishing.This is not just a conversation about business or leadership performance.
