This clip is proof of why you need to watch The People's Project. 3 months ago we were ahead of the curve in tackling the important issues, and we regularly find ourselves leading MSM where it matters. Honestly...who cares about exactly what happened today, what we really want to know is how today's news will affect our tomorrow.

5 million Australians rely on small business. As a group, small business is the largest employer and biggest contributor to the national economy but it remains fragmented because small business owners by their nature run their own race with little time or will to organise politically. Enter Small Business Australia - an organisation founded by Bill Lang two decades ago to represent all small businesses in this country and bring attention to their role as community hubs and the heart of our economy. --------------------------------- Join Small Business Australia for FREE: www.smallbusinessaustralia.org Let’s Be Open campaign: www.sosbiz.com.au Follow Bill: www.facebook.com/smallbizaustralia www.linkedin.com/company/67993566/admin Listen to this episode: https://www.discernable.io/podcast/episode/24e15791/business-innovation-series-episode-6-bill-lang --------------------------------- Show notes: 2:20 Local communities are supported by small business not large corporations 6:33 Winning the war by changing the government – ideas to save business 8:37 Change ‘imposed’ is often change ‘opposed’ 11:50 ‘Australian Cadetships’ instead of JobSeeker 13:42 Private sector designed, government funded 15:58 ‘A chicken in every pot’ 21:31 Giving politicians too much power 24:53 The U.K. stimulus for lockdowns 27:25 How to get staff at half price 32:35 People mistakenly believe that government supported all small businesses 34:53 Does the Victorian government ‘hate’ small business? 38:31 Companies captured by government 43:51 Citizen Action Plans (CAP) to change Victoria 48:15 Media bias and faked interviews 49:10 New bankruptcy laws? 54:43 QLD elections, Jacinda Ardern win, Daniel Andrews in 2022 1:03:12 Where to get news and avoid ‘if it bleeds it leads’ 1:08:40 Private sector innovation for contact tracing 1:11:45 Service NSW shows us how it’s done 1:13:16 Why Australians still start small businesses 1:20:32 The coming wave of innovation 1:22:22 Succeeding during crisis 1:25:30 Hibernation and polar bears 1:30:12 Business is much more than profit 1:31:50 Moving beyond survival to focus on ‘thriving’ post-COVID 1:35:28 Recommendations for 2020/2021 ... https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wxoYJK1qzsk

Lauren Dry is a specialist in nervous system and unconscious-driven behaviours. She joined Discernable to explore why so many people are 'stuck' post-pandemic and acting emotionally and unconsciously. Serving as case study is the paradoxical treatment of Novak Djokovic by angry Australians, and the way humans descend into groupthink, social norms and reactionary grasps for 'safety'. Steered by media and opportunistic governments, populations swing from one 'villain' to another, with some ultimately finding themselves in the arms of 'freedom' movements that are just as manipulative and fear-driven. Is there a way to break free and live aware of our unconscious triggers, motivations and vulnerabilities? Watch the full interview at: https://discernable.io/lauren-dry-why-people-cant-let-go-of-the-pandemic We discussed: The groupthink that condemned Novak Djokovic The Asch conformity experiments Creating social norms that contain no logic The man from Nunawading who can't let go Allowing the 'protector' part of ourselves to take over Fight, Flight, Fawn or Freeze Physical somatic practices before, during and after stress Novak Djokovic made the lightning rod for all threats to our safety Dividing internal 'self' in order to survive Anger over dirty dishes Connecting in uncomfortable conversations Pixar's Inside Out Allowing partial personalities to take over Media and politics needs you in a state of fear Red flag: lack of complexity The 'freedom' movement exploiting people's fears Making self-awareness great again Most of the population is not conscious of their actions Exuding an atmosphere of safety Finding idols and role models Treat your triggers like you treat your children What is authenticity? The Liver King Is Jacinda Ardern authentic? Is Justin Trudeau authentic? Is Oprah authentic? How to understand Andrew Tate How to determine authenticity What's the deal with Jordan Peterson? Female role models Teal Swan 'the cult leader' Long dead heroes Finding an anchor for your soul Adopting a posture of surrender and humility
