How The World Broke And What To Do About It

from Starting The Wave Podcast · host Matt Hope Coaching

Hello and welcome. This show is the culmination of my life’s work in answering two questions: Why did the world break? and What can I do about it? If you are struggling to find your footing in a fractured world, I created this for you. This isn’t a dress rehearsal; we are in an emergency situation, and there are no "Power Rangers" coming to save us. We have to do this ourselves.The Cognitive VirusA decade ago, I walked away from medical school. I realised the global elite have no interest in peace. While I was training to be a neurosurgeon, I saw that if Big Business kept accelerating, there would eventually be no hospitals left to work in. Consider the history we aren’t taught:The Unfinished War: No formal peace treaty was ever signed to end WWII.The Nobel Irony: The family behind the Nobel Peace Prize invented the oil tanker and a naval mine.The Stanford Fraud: Stanford’s founder was a legendary tax fraudster.We are trapped in a philosophical system handed down by three "stooges" - Aristotle, Plato, and Socrates designed to make change feel impossible. They taught us that society must be split into three tiers: the 1% who rule, the bureaucracy that helps them, and the 99% who are told they are powerless.In This Episode:The Overton Window: We explore why some ideas feel "weird," and others feel "normal." Big Business uses this window to uninstall your willpower and replace it with FUD (Fear, Uncertainty, and Doubt).The Mental Immune System: Learn how to recognise the "Malware" of Big Business— like how the stories of Star Wars and Harry Potter that dominate our consciousness are really designed to keep us from asking why we haven't signed a World Peace Treaty.The 900-Million-Year Responsibility: If we take "Aliens" and "AI" off the table, we realise we are cosmically responsible for the next billion years of life on Earth. Why is world peace considered "woo-woo" while living in a simulation is considered "rational"?Today, we start the work of training your mental antivirus. We split business into two categories: the essential (food, healing, shelter) and the toxic (fast fashion, advertising, and big oil). We begin the journey of plugging the gap of worthlessness that Big Business exploits.Love is the ultimate solution to Earth’s pollution. Let’s get the wave started._____Connect with MattWebsite: https://matthopecoaching.comYouTube: https://youtube.com/matthopecoachingIG: https://instagram.com/matthopecoachingFB: https://facebook.com/matthopecoaching
