What would it take to shift our culture away from anger, fear and greed, and toward the higher motivations of exploration and cooperation? What if five or ten percent of people could commit their authentic selves to a life of higher service? Danah Zohar believes that's all it would take to save us from the violence and destruction that face the world today. Drawing on principles of quantum physics and philosophy, she outlines the powerful impact we can have on our culture, our businesses, and our personal and global relationships when we allow our spiritual intelligence to guide us to live according to our greatest sense of meaning and purpose. "We who live at the beginning of the twenty-first century are living in a time that is at the edge of chaos, between a known and certain past and a very uncertain future. The edge of chaos is a very exciting place to be, but it's very unstable. It's like walking a tightrope." (hosted by Michael Toms)
