In this episode we begin to unravel what drives the economy, and the narratives that underpin how the economy operates in the world and in us. We consider who the gatekeepers of the current economic system are and what the organising principle of money is … and what it could be.

What are the myths that drive our current economic system?

What shadows within us all fuel the overconsumption of this planet?

What new narratives do we need to help us create a new economic system?

As we begin to analyse the economy as if it were a person, we look at what narratives are driving the economy and how these narratives live within us all. We discuss who the gatekeepers of the economy are and whether they are those who hold the financial wealth, or whether in fact, the gatekeepers are inside all of us.

Berry also shares her own personal story to explain why the urgency to help create a new economic system is so alive in her.
