Everlutionary: Healing and Transforming the World

E25 - The Wetiko Psychosis and the Need for Earth-Led Education with Cindy Forde

06 May 2025

Description

Native American mythologies portray the mythical figure of “Wetiko” as a cannibalistic spirit who embodies greed and exploitation and can possess human beings. Modern thinkers interpret it as a “mind virus” or a force that can corrupt individuals and societies by leading them down a path of self-serving behavior and a disregard for others and the environment. Indigenous traditions see this as violating the sacred law of reciprocity, where one should give back to the world as much as one takes. In this episode of The Everlutionary Podcast, our host, Hawah Kasat, sits down with Cindy Forde, author of “Bright New World,” and the Founder of Planetari, to unpack how Earth-led education offers a transformative path to healing our relationship with the planet by shifting from an egocentric to an ecocentric worldview. Can Earth-led education revolutionize our relationship with the planet and offer hope and practical solutions for those seeking to make a meaningful impact?
