03: Is Sacrifice Necessary for Progress? with Bill & Wendy

Click here to view the episode transcript.

In this episode, we question the global paradigm that sacrifice, cost and loss are necessary for progress and gain. We suggest that there may be preferable alternatives when it comes to reconciling the irreconcilable.

To clarify the meaning of sacrifice for the purposes of this episode, sacrifice is the violent death, exile or diminishment of someone or something by others as an offering to or for something greater. This may be perceived in real time or through retrospective reinterpretation.

Hopefully, this definition makes it clearer that this episode isn't necessarily about self-sacrifice. :-)
