In this episode of the Pocket Dojo Podcast, host Paul introduces co-host Asha and her guest Thomas Schindler to talk about how we create a better world through community and agency.

Thomas shares his unique upbringing in a household of natural scientists and his aspirations to be a rock star, which shaped his innovative approach to life and work.

He discusses his software engineering company that invests heavily in initiatives aimed at creating a "heliocentric civilisation," where life is prioritised over GDP.

The conversation explores themes of community, personal agency, and systemic change, emphasising the importance of coordination, vulnerability, and rethinking the role of money in fostering a better world.
