Meet Elodie! La Turbine podcast
🌍 In previous episodes, we've met artists and entrepreneurs, men and women eager to experiment, who embody humanist utopias with their heads in the stars and both feet on the ground. What they have in common is that they are at the heart of collective adventures and believe in the power of their dreams to transform reality.
For this 6th episode, we meet Élodie Parent-Riquet, with whom we examine the power of collectives in the mechanisms of societal transitions, and the individuals who make them up. Plural individuals who take care of their inner ecology and occupy their rightful place to better reveal their full potential and contribute to the collective dynamic in a powerful and joyful way. We also address the question of choice, of inner and outer peace, of the utopia of being happy together. Podcast in French.
