306. Tom Nixon - the work of co-founding, more on working with source and following aliveness

Dela

How do we realise a vision without losing each other along the way? And as the hardships of our world become harder to turn away from, how do we recognise what is ours to do? Tom Nixon (Website, EP120) returns to the podcast to explore source, power and the relationship between what makes us come alive and how we serve life.

We sit with two ideas that can seem contradictory: our deep equality as human beings, and the different relationships we each have to an idea. What happens when hierarchy is understood as a sacred order rather than a way of exercising power over others?

This brings us to “power with”. Not power as a scarce resource to divide, or something one person grants another, but the possibility of becoming powerful together. We explore how this changes the way we understand co-founding, roles and responsibility, and why mapping who is the source of what can reveal more than an organisational chart.

Along the way, we touch on complexity, AI and the limits of the models we use to make sense of our work. Governance, shareholdings and structures matter, but they can also distract us from something more fundamental: what wants to come into being, and have we actually taken the first step?

We keep returning to a simple inquiry. What makes me come alive?
