Collective Evolution with Joe Martino Collective Evolution We explore new and emerging ideas in philosophy, well-being, human potential, consciousness and more as we seek clarity and direction through heavily changing times. Virtually every aspect of our society is crumbling or transitioning – media, technology, consciousness, economies, education, relationships and more. Old ways of looking at and understanding our world are no longer relevant, and new ways encourage us to look more deeply at why our world is the way it is, and what about US creates it to be this way.
