Summary
What would change if we viewed money as sacred, as a potential form of medicine? And how do the incentives embedded within the world of philanthropy act as barriers for it to catalyze deep transformations?
In this episode, we welcome Edgar Villanueva, a globally recognized author, activist, and expert on social justice philanthropy. Edgar is the author of the bestselling book Decolonizing Wealth and the founder and principal of Decolonizing Wealth Project and Liberated Capital.
The song featured in this episode is I Remember by The Awakening Orchestra (Biophilia Records).

| 0:00.0 | I have a quick but important ask. As you're probably aware, Green Dreamer is an independent |
| 0:07.9 | podcast and we don't take on corporate advertisers to fund our work because we don't want those |
| 0:13.7 | considerations to influence our curiosities or our abilities to question whatever it is that we want to question. |
| 0:22.3 | So if you value and believe in our work, this is our call out. |
| 0:26.8 | We need your direct support in order to continue this podcast. |
| 0:30.7 | And you can help us out so, so much through a paid substack subscription to my newsletter at |
| 0:37.3 | camaya.substack.com or through a one-time |
| 0:40.4 | donation at greendreamer.com slash support. It really means a lot to have you here and we're so |
| 0:47.6 | grateful for whatever form or level of support that you're able to share with us. |
| 0:55.2 | Hey, it's your host, Kamea Shane, and this is Green Dreamer, a podcast exploring our paths |
| 1:00.9 | to collective healing, ecological regeneration, and true abundance and wellness for all. |
| 1:06.7 | As a community-powered show made possible by listeners like you, we do need your direct support to be able to continue the show and keep exploring a lot of perspectives sidelined by mainstream media. |
| 1:18.6 | So if you value these conversations, you can reciprocate support for us starting from a gift of $2 at greaddreamer.com slash support. |
| 1:27.6 | Also, we recently launched our fundraising Green Dreamer planners. |
| 1:31.9 | They include the major socio-ecological awareness dates, |
| 1:35.4 | gratitude sections, inspirational quotes from our past guests, |
| 1:38.9 | weekly suggested grounding actions, and more. |
| 1:41.9 | And they're made with recycled paper, bound by recycled craft paper, and protected by optional recycled cotton book lots. But more importantly, I designed them intentionally to support our mental well-being. So if and only if you do make good use of physical planners, I'd love for you to check them out at greendreamer.com slash planners. |
| 2:02.9 | Final notice, we are taking a two-week holiday break after this episode while we prepare for |
| 2:08.3 | more perspective-shifting conversations to come. But we have so many timeless episodes in our |
| 2:14.2 | archives at this point. I hope you might use this time to catch up on some of our |
| 2:18.7 | earlier content. For now, on to today's episode where we're speaking with Edgar Villanueva. |
