Apr 15, 2021

What if the story of our origins is rooted in lies? What if our accepted societal understanding of our past is wrong? Is it possible that much of our suffering is resultant of living life from an erroneous playbook? No other sees more clearly the trappings of BS Inc. than Dr. Chris Ryan. He shares loads of real-talk about the dire challenges confronting our human family and inspires us with a hopeful vision of a future more aligned with our past.
