To what end?
Nando has been on an existential inquiry since childhood. Which has led to an ‘obsession of competence’, to prepare for judgement and be in service to others. A path which has included being the Director of Health and Wellbeing with the European Commission. And confirmed by the death of his beloved mother, a calling to be of service to dying people and collapsing communities.
We talk about death and eternity, facing our fears, the 4 power animals and authentic relationships in organisations, praying to the earth, valuing time and credibility, and going beyond the more than human community. And the aspirations of being an elder.
We end with a little poem and meditation.
