10. The stories we tell // SEASON FINALE WITH HOST INGRID M. RIESER

Goodbye 2020, hello 2021. How do we start to make sense of one of the most turbulent, transformative and chaotic years in recent history? We’re always telling – and listening to – stories in order to make sense of the world around us. In this episode we explore how those narratives take shape and evolve over time, with the help of a journey to Ukraine. We also ask how we become better navigators in our ever-changing and messy world of ideas.

This is a reflective session with wandering host Ingrid Rieser, providing retrospective end to the first of season of the Forest of Thought.
