Richard joins me today to discuss the growing consciousness and why we need to work together for the good of the whole human species. Richard shares how consciousness has evolved and how the developmental stages affect your personal consciousness. We discuss how our political leaders' conscious state affects the world and the evidence of this shown through the government's response to COVID-19. Richard discusses what it means to individuate and how you can resolve your limiting fears and reach a higher state. He also shares why we must care about uplifting everyone in society and the world to achieve humanity awareness and the next stage of our growing consciousness.
