Welcome to bewildered. I'm Martha Beck here with Rowan Mangan. At this crazy moment in history,

a lot of people are feeling bewildered, but that actually may be a sign we're on track.

Human culture teaches us to come to consensus, but nature, our own true nature, helps us come

to our senses. Rowan and I believe that the best way to figure it all out is by going through

a wilderness into bewildered. That's why we're here. You know what I'm seeing out in the world is

a lot of fear and a growing amount of despair. Maybe you're feeling that way too, because the ways

our culture has taught us to navigate the world, to navigate our lives, they are failing us.

We need a new language. We need a new set of tools to find our way individually and as a group.

And I know we can still do this. I put everything I do know about it into wayfinder life coach training

and the tools that I teach there are to help people redefine how we relate to each other,

how we make a living, how we do community. We can only change the world for the better if we redefine

how we think. Registration is open for the fall and the world needs wayfinders now more than ever.

So please go to myotherbank.com and you'll find your way.

Hi, this is Marty and I'm Rowan. Here we are at another episode of bewildered

the podcast for people trying to figure it out. I've been trying to figure it out lately

by consulting our dog Bilbo Baggins, but he just referred me to his personal assistant who turned

out to be a garden gnome with a headset, so that wasn't much help. But then Marty came along

and it turns out she speaks gnome, so they figured it out together in no time.

Oh Row, in all humility, I do not speak gnome. I read and write it, which is weird because I kind

of speak Chinese but can't read and write it for beings. Fortunately, I don't even know what I would

do with a Chinese garden gnome. Anyway, yeah, we figured it out. It's these dark days.

Yeah, I mean, our dog Bilbo Baggins, if you guys don't know, is a cockapoo, which sounds cute.
