38: Bonnitta Roy – We Need to Watch Each Other Grow

Bonnitta Roy joins us to talk about crisis, creativity, and complexity, in the spirit of conscious (re)invention amidst global challenge.

Bonnitta Roy 180x200
Bonnitta Roy is an author and a teacher. Her work focuses on breaking away from limiting patterns of thought. She is the founder of Alderlore Insight Centre, a non-profit educational organisation focusing on secondary education and insight training for post-formal thinkers. She is Professor in Residence for the MA in Consciousness Studies and Transpersonal Psychology at the Graduate Institute, and an Associate Editor of Integral Review.

Bonnitta is among a brilliant cast of metamodern thinkers. In this regard, her work considers how the sense of crisis many of us feel has as much to do with how we perceive the world as with what goes on within it. We are living through a period of disruptive change and Bonnitta sees these times as an invitation to grapple with the limitations of our inherited toolbox of linear and causal ways of thinking.

In this episode we reflect on the limitations of human consciousness and discuss the potential for good that stems from reimagining the way we think.
