Transforming Fear into Action with author John Perkins
Author John Perkins had a foot in two very different worlds: the world of high powered economics and the world of shamanism. Back in 2004, he released Confessions of an Economic Hitman, a book that pulled back the curtain on nefarious global economic practices and brought him a lot of attention. In his latest book, Touching the Jaguar: Transforming Fear Into Action to Change Our Lives and the World, John weaves both of these worlds together in a really powerful way.
In this episode John shares:
- How a shaman in the Amazon saved his life
- How perception creates reality
- His experience as an economic hit man
- How shamanism is becoming more accepted
- The crossover between his experience as an economist and shamanism
- What led to his understanding of the role of deception
- His experience of denial
- Colonial mind vs Indigenous mind
- The gift of coronavirus
- The importance of moving from a “death” to a “life” economy
- What it means to “touch the jaguar”
- Changing our perception
- Steps anyone can take to touch the jaguar
