How to Engage with Technology Without Losing Your Mind | Soren Gordhamer

How not to forget what actually matters.

Soren Gordhamer is the host of Wisdom 2.0, a conference about mindfulness and compassion in the modern age. He's also a Co-Founder and General Partner of Wisdom Ventures, which invests in companies creating a more just and compassionate world. His new book is called THE ESSENTIAL: Discovering What Really Matters in an Age of Distraction.

In this episode we talk about:

What Soren means by "the essential"
The current and future impact of AI on the economy, our mental health, and society at large
What Soren thinks the world looks like in 5, 10, 15 years from now
Useful strategies for managing technology with an iota of balance and wisdom
How to get familiar with the unseen stories that run your life—so that they Don't have so much power over you
The number one question for our time, per Soren
Whether or not we humans are actually going to do this "essential" work before it's too late
Whether the people designing these systems have the best interest of the species at heart
