No matter what we do, it won't work unless we tackle the root of the problem.

The stories we tell and hear shape the architecture of our brains and influence our behaviour, even when we’re not aware of it. In this episode, we explain the science behind this and map our way into the future.

About:
Hey! It's me, Claudia Ayuso. I’m the one producing and writing these stories for you –and for me too, really. These are the stories that I’ve so desperately needed my whole life.

Each episode of Origin Story takes on a big dilemma or problem of today, investigates how we got there and helps us imagine a future in which humans are part of the solution. My goal with this show is to provide a general model for the ways we might improve and transform our modern industrial society. And to honour the sophistication of our ancestors.
