"“Given the gap between the world as it is and the world that I dream of, how
then shall I live?”

That’s a quote from an earlier episode of the podcast—not from me, but from Nic
Antoinette paraphrasing Wendell Berry—but I find myself asking this question
again and again.

So today, I want to talk about the 3 Ts of change work: Triage, Transition, and
Transformation. I encountered this framing on a podcast while driving the
TransCanadian Highway during my 9000 mile EV roadtrip across the US and Canada.
Unfortunately, I didn’t note which podcast it was. But the phrase stuck because
it was so evocative."

Cheers,
