Today’s show is a real treat! It’s a rich conversation about being grounded and using divination as a tool. We discuss those things and much more with our exciting guest. Join us!

Téo Montoya is a human design analyst, metamodern myth mender, and indigenous futurist living in Santa Fe, New Mexico. He is also an enrolled member of the Lipan Apache Band of Texas. His work focuses on synthesizing cosmological and spiritual systems, myths, archetypes, and modalities to find ways of supporting an emerging world in crisis through human development, ecological literacy, and reciprocity with our more-than-human kin. In today’s conversation, Téo explains myth mending and the concept of meta-modernism, along with indigenous futurism, how he defines it, and why it’s important in this day and age. His work is important because it is on the leading edge of where we go from this current time of ecological and social crisis.
