How to Engage with Technology Without Losing Your Mind | Soren Gordhamer

How to Engage with Technology Without Losing Your Mind | Soren Gordhamer

How not to forget what actually matters.

Soren Gordhamer is the host of Wisdom 2.0, a conference about mindfulness and compassion in the modern age. He's also a Co-Founder and General Partner of Wisdom Ventures, which invests in companies creating a more just and compassionate world. His new book is called THE ESSENTIAL: Discovering What Really Matters in an Age of Distraction.

In this episode we talk about:

  • What Soren means by "the essential"
  • The current and future impact of AI on the economy, our mental health, and society at large
  • What Soren thinks the world looks like in 5, 10, 15 years from now
  • Useful strategies for managing technology with an iota of balance and wisdom
  • How to get familiar with the unseen stories that run your life—so that they Don't have so much power over you
  • The number one question for our time, per Soren
  •  Whether or not we humans are actually going to do this "essential" work before it's too late
  • Whether the people designing these systems have the best interest of the species at heart
