What is the main topic discussed in this episode?
So conscious governance, nature conscious governance is to understand that we are nature, the full part of nature, an integral nuance of nature. Being aware of that when we step into consciousness, that means we step into an understanding of the choices that reveal themselves to us. We choose what value we assign to what we interpret. We are conscious of the meaning that we make of the situations that we find ourselves in. And our ability to make that decision, that's what makes it nature-conscious as a system of governance.
Hey people, welcome to Accidental Gods. To the podcast where we still believe that another world is possible, and that if we all work together, there is still time to turn the bus from the edge of the cliff, to lay the foundations for a future that we would be proud to leave to the generations that come after us. I'm Amanda Scott, your host on this podcast, your fellow traveller in this journey into possibility. Your fellow griever at the turning of the world, 2025 was not good. 2026, as I record, is 13 days into existence and it's not looking great, eh? I am well aware that all around the world atrocities are happening, have been happening, will continue to happen. And yet, there have been times in the last couple of weeks where team death seemed to have an ascendancy over team life.
I don't believe this is the case in the long term, but it has been hard sometimes to hold on to that sense of belief, to connect the web of life openheartedly through the grief and the horror. And if that's the case for you, I want to let you know that our next gathering within Accidental Gods is Honouring Fear as Your Mentor. It's on Sunday the 8th of February, from 4 o'clock till 8 o'clock UK time.
How does Alexandra Pimor define nature-conscious governance?
We're in GMT at the moment. I realise that for some of you, hello Laurel, it is 3am when you get up to come to these gatherings. I wish that that were not the case, but we have to fit with the time zones we're in, and I am beyond grateful for those of you who get up at stupid o'clock to come and join us. So whatever time it is in your world, I am of the belief that the inner work is the most important as we move forward towards the future that we would be proud to leave behind. No problem is solved from the mindset that created it, and the only way to change our mindset is to really do the inner work. And I am also aware, watching the horror happening around the world, that when I am triggered, it's not about the trigger.
It's never about the trigger. The part of me that is triggered, that is grieving, that is terrified, is teaching me the places that are frozen inside, is showing me the places where I still need to do the inner work. And so I am endeavouring to take fear and grief as my mentor. As Ali P. Moore says later in the podcast you're about to hear, to take life and death as my witness, and to do the work. And that work is done better, I believe, with other people. So that's what the gatherings are for.
What role does nature play in corporate governance?
To give us each the tools to begin to freeze the frozen parts, Thomas Hubel tells us that trauma is a moment frozen in time, and we need to do the unfreezing. We need to thaw. We need to free up the ossified places so that we can become fluid in our connection to the web of life. So we're looking for the tools. We're looking for connection. We're looking to give each other help so that we may also receive the help. So if that sings to your heart, there are details in the show notes. Or just go to accidentalgods.life and click the gatherings tab and you'll find it there. And then on to this week's podcast. Because across the world, our legal systems are crumbling. People with guns are defining what they think the law is, while honest, decent people are pushing back with connection and love and compassion.
And while in some places the rule of sane law is being dismantled in real time, at the same time, Rivers and mountains and bees are being granted legal rights in ways that we would have thought impossible even a few years ago. And in boardrooms around the planet, C-suites, directors, others in business are increasingly looking to the natural world for guidance on how to be, on how to heal the web of life, on how to do business differently.
