Episode Description from the Publisher

I used to drool at the thought of becoming a professional philanthropist. I pictured myself donating my time, wads of money, energy funding women's businesses and ecological projects all around the world.  That image in my head felt like the peak experience, like if I could achieve that it would mean I'd arrived. But when I started studying matriarchal economics and specifically wealth distribution models, I had to rethink some things. Because philanthropy is the dominant model of redistribution inside the current economy and it is structurally designed to leave the power differential intact. In this podcast episode I dive into the four categories of redistribution that get collapsed under philanthropy, and each one's role in moving us from the control of the triangle (where power is concentrated at the top) to circle (where power is distributed through relationships). In just under 30 minutes, you'll understand how to balance your redistribution portfolio along with 4 steps to putting it in action in ways that distribute power.
