Thanks for the great article Tom. I resonate strongly with your ideas and have actually written my PhD about the need of an inner transformation for outer transformation and how the two might relate to each other. Yet, the "inner" can have so many connotations: mindsets, values, worldviews... To me, the notion of worldviews - which includes our comprehension of the nature of the universe and our metaphysical assumptions - is key in the context of sustainability. If you are ever curious about diving into this deeper and would like some literature suggestions, let me know.
Let me know if you have any questions or if you'd - at some point - like to have a conversation about it. I love exchanging and hearing new perspectives on this topic.
Thanks Jessica, this looks like the area of thought and mental process and behavioral development that I felt has been missing for far too long. Hope your work continues and flourishes and gets enough following in and outside academia to lead to some breakthroughs for humanity! I'm so happy that you are travelling along this path.
Love this, Jessica. Just subscribed to your Substack (in addition to Tom's :). I have long been interested in precisely your focus. As I state in on my own website for my upcoming podcast, wisetalkers.com, "Alongside my keen interest in personal growth and self-knowledge, I have always been fascinated by the process and mechanisms of sociopolitical change, with a special interest in how personal development relates to social / political / cultural development." I look forward to delving into your material!

Hi Jessica, what an amazing PhD subject! Is it possible to read your thesis anywhere?
Hi Tom,
yes, it's available online.
Here is an overview of my research: https://www.jessicaboehme.com/research/
And the introduction in this one might be a good place to start: https://pub-data.leuphana.de/frontdoor/deliver/index/docId/1297/file/Dissertation_2023_Boehme_Inner.pdf
Let me know if you have any questions or if you'd - at some point - like to have a conversation about it. I love exchanging and hearing new perspectives on this topic.
Warmly,
Jes

Thanks, Ronald. Your podcast sounds super interesting - will listen into it.
Thanks! I'll let you know when I've got the first one up.
