Unf*cking the World — Radical Hope for the Future | Jamie Wheal

🧠 Why does the world feel like it’s gone insane — and how do we find meaning again?
Best-selling author Jamie Wheal is back on The Finding Mastery Podcast to dive deep into the biggest questions of our time.

Jamie is the founder of The Flow Genome Project and author of "Recapture the Rapture: Rethinking God, Sex, and Death in a World That’s Lost Its Mind." He’s advised leaders at Google, Red Bull, Facebook, Nike, Goldman Sachs, and more — and his groundbreaking ideas on flow states, altered consciousness, and human potential have been featured in The New York Times, Wired, Harvard Business Review, and TED.

In this episode, we explores:

🌎 Why the world feels more chaotic than ever

🧬 How radical ideas about consciousness and resilience can help us adapt

🔮 What might be coming next — and how to prepare for it

If you’re feeling overwhelmed by the state of the world — or curious about how to thrive in uncertain times — you’re going to love this conversation.
