If you desire a deeper understanding of ERA’s core ideology, we invite you to both read the brilliant book, Ishmael, and also listen to the Human Nature Odyssey podcast — start at the beginning!

Ishmael provides a collective understanding of “how things came to be this way” and serves as essential common ground for collaborative conversations as we co-create a regenerative future together.

The very core of all of the issues unfolding on our planet at this time — extreme weather and fire events, planetary destruction and global unrest — are due to our collective disconnection from the Kinship Worldview… meaning disconnection from Mother Earth and from authentic, deep and reciprocal relationships with one another and with all Life. Through no fault of our own, we are all caught in the riptide of the globalized industrialization and destruction of this precious planet and all Life.

*Note: Fortunately, there exists Indigenous Wisdom on this planet today that is still connected to and guided by the Kinship Worldview and the Wisdom of Nature… in other words, not all humans are swept up in the destruction of our planet.

There is hope because we are all indigenous to Mother Earth. We can collectively remember, unlearn / relearn, and reconnect. This is The Great Remembering.

Just as Mother Earth has dormant seeds in her land that are waiting for the right conditions, this is true of humanity as well. There are dormant seeds of love, connection and creativity that have also been waiting for the right conditions… and those right conditions have arrived!

Let’s start with finding our Common Ground …which starts with our common understanding of the disconnect:

🎙️ Human Nature Odyssey – (start with S1, Ep1-8)

A podcast exploring our evolutionary journey, the wisdom of Nature, and how we can live in deeper alignment with the Earth. It is a modern-day take on the brilliant ideas explored in the book, Ishmael by Daniel Quinn.

📖 Ishmael

A transformative novel exploring the centuries-old, dominant narrative that is driving current civilization’s negative impact on the planet. Ishmael creates a foundational understanding of our current predicament, giving us common ground and an invitation to something better… to be who we are meant to be.
