In this challenging episode (challenging in a good way), I sit down with Steven Young, author of ‘A Fool’s Wisdom’.

Steven’s path is remarkable. From a PhD in nuclear physics, to having all his assumptions about reality turned upside, it’s been emotional. Atomic theory, accepted cosmology, and the theory of gravity - he now questions it all. 

Steven takes his place amongst a growing cadre of intellectuals rejecting Modernity’s scientific orthodoxies.

But this isn’t just about poking a stick at accepted dogmas. Steven is now embracing a notion of science that integrates a broader understanding of consciousness. A return to the powerful, intuitive alchemical principles on which early science was founded. One that can inspire and empower creatives and leaders alike.

We discuss:

  • How a nuclear physicist starts questioning the globe theory
  • Letting go of the atomic theory
  • Finding alchemy
  • An alchemical approach to product development
  • Towards an artistic and societal renaissance
