Show Notes

When a leader has a vision of change, others have to be able to see it too or they won’t act to help realize it. That means they have to share the same understanding of what it is. In Jonathan’s case, his vision centres on a new shared home. It’s easy to assume that everyone knows what home is. But do they? What does home really mean? In this episode, Jonathan explores life with and without a home. Digging deep, he surfaces six different dimensions of home.  He ultimately lands on feeling at home within ourselves and whether or not we can share a home when there are cracks within the walls.

 

03:05      What is homelessness to you, the visionary?

05:30     What I’m addressing is the normalization of homelessness.

07:35      It’s the pursuit of unity and integrity within yourself that matters.

14:30      Fearing it could be ourselves, we might close the door.

14:45      A story of how some respond to change on their terrain.

19:30      What degradation of our values allows us to tolerate a high degree of homelessness.

21:30      Culture develops from place and home, and ultimately shapes our values.

22:30      Some of what we lose when we’re homeless.

31:20      The bigger idea of home where you can be the person you want to be, whatever that is.

32:30      A summary of Jonathan’s 6 dimensions of homelessness.

37:30      You can lose your home even if you’ve stayed exactly where you are.

37:45      The risk of being in pursuit.

39:45      We can carry home with us wherever we go.

45:30      An anecdote about bringing people together in a Copenhagen café.

47:20      What would the “shared home” be?

51:35     How does “secret” inform home?

54:10       Exploring three different meanings of “secret”.

1:04:00    Does home being secret mean they can’t find it?

1:07:17    Is there an inner chamber that only some have the key to open?

1:10:13    It’s easy to understand that a group is nervous about encroachment.

1:12:12    What if the majority of individuals are missing that sense of home from within?

1:13:17    Jonathan’s vision of a shared home.

1:18:09    Central to my vision is that each person chooses their own path.

1:19:00    Contribution vs. Service

1:22:00    Our need to serve something much bigger than ourselves is so important.

1:25:50    How do you share a home when no one feels at home right now?

1:27:35   My sense is that the fractures within may take a little longer to repair.
