The Glorious 2030s

Interview with Eli Godde & Gaëlle Shearn Eli Godde and Gaëlle Shearn facilitate The Glorious 2030s, a French-born conversational workshop that drops participants into a utopian future through guided meditation, three personal questions on a pocket-sized blue card, and oracle cards featuring real initiatives already underway today. The reframe: utopia is not a destination but a muscle, and training it with strangers in a room for three hours produces much more agency than years of reading about what is going wrong.
