Change Our Story, Change Our World

Change Our Story, Change Our World with Gregg Braden and Jude Currivan

We are waking up inside an outdated story—an erroneous worldview—trapped inside a narrative that isn’t true. New science and ancient spiritual wisdom have given us an evolved understanding of reality. A whole worldview can guide the evolution of consciousness and lead us toward a unifying framework for whole-systems health and healing. Both Gregg Braden and Jude Currivan agree, when we change our story, we will change our world for the better.

His clients include cities, government agencies, large corporations, and social entrepreneurs.

David used this empowerment proficiency to organize at the height of the cold war, in partnership with the United Nations Children’s Fund and ABC Television, one of the planet’s first major global consciousness-raising initiatives—the First Earth Run. Building on his background as the Director of the Lake Placid Olympic Torch Relay, he used the mythic power of relaying a torch of peace around the world to engage the participation of twenty-five million people in sixty-two countries, the world’s political leadership and, through the media, an estimated 20 percent of the planet’s population in an act of global unity. Millions of dollars were also raised as part of this event to help UNICEF provide care for the neediest children of the world.

Gershon is the author of eleven books, including Social Change 2.0: A Blueprint for Reinventing Our World, winner of the National Best Book Award, and the best selling Low Carbon Diet: A 30 Day Program to Lose 5,000 Pounds.
