#26 Conflict as a Catalyst: Trump is the Disruptor (Part 1)

This is Conflict as a Catalyst — a special series from Respond with Samantha Reigle, where we explore how the world’s biggest disruptions are actually guiding our evolution. Today: Trump is Exposing Our Illusions (Part 1)

In this episode of the Respond Podcast, host Samantha Reigle delves into the concept of 'conflict as a catalyst,' focusing on how systems we once thought stable are now revealing their fractures. Samantha explores the role of Donald Trump as a 'collective disruptor,' exposing the longstanding issues within political, social, and economic systems. She discusses how Trump's rise to power reflects deeper misalignments in society and serves to reveal the illusions we've been living under. This is the first part of a series aimed at understanding how major global conflicts and disruptors can be catalysts for necessary change.
