June 10th 2026 I love you too much to let you stay broken I love you too much to let you stay broken 25 years ago, I created a program called Dare to Care – How to speak the radical truth with compassion. The point was that if we care enough about someone, we will tell them the radical truth, ideally in a way that does not demean, belittle, shame or ridicule. We often confuse love with being nice. Love is courage. Love is wanting for the other great things, including being the most beautiful...

June 9th 2026 Standing even against relentless criticism Standing even against relentless criticism Almost every human I have met has before them the choice between the path that calls to them but is filled with uncertainty, risk, and exposure, and the safe path. We are faced with this choice every single day in one form or another. When we take the risky, exposing path, then we face everything that we fear. This includes shame, failure, rejection, ridicule and isolation. Our world is full of...

June 8th 2026 You have to stand for something You have to stand for something We look back at history and see such atrocities that it is hard to comprehend. Capurting humans and shipping them across the seas, an estimated 12.5 million of them, with 1.8 million of them dying in transit. Then to subject these people to brutality and cruelty, still ongoing to this day. Between 12 and 29 Indians died at the hands of the British from starvation, and an estimated 165 million died from other...

June 6th 2026 It is never too late to become educated It is never too late to become educated In Syntropic World we teach the principle of precession. To every action there is a reaction or side effect, at 90 degrees to the action. Let us consider the genocide in Gaza, perpetrated by Israel, with the overwhelming sanction of the governments of the West. The direct effects are so horrible, so dehumanising, the extraordinary loss of life, willful and continued destruction of all of the...

June 4th 2026 The real conversation cannot be silenced The real conversation cannot be silenced When we do not take time each day to spend in communion with our business, our soul, our relationships, our health and the things that matter, then we are sending a clear signal to the Universe that these things do not matter. We end up disconnected, lost in busy-ness and wondering what happened to this one wild and precious life. We will lose our relationships, our connection to self, our...

June 3rd 2026 Finding the awe gate Finding the awe gate Great art, great design, great business is forged from a place that knows what it is like to be on our knees. At this point, when everything is peeled away, who we are at core and why we want to build a business becomes crystalised. We can be on our knees for many reasons. Route #1. Life can beat us up so much that we end up on our knees in despair. Funny thing about this, though, is once we get to our knees…once we are so far down that...

June 2nd 2026 Data is not truth Data is not truth For it misses everything that cannot be measured and reduced to zeros and ones. It fails to account for perspective, worldview, beauty, violence, love, awe. It strips everything that makes us human, and asks that we become machines. The era we are entering has placed data on the new altar. The god of our times. It fuels obscene wealth for the few while extracting our data-captured lives. The gods of data use their weapon to manipulate,...
