In this episode of the Wilmette Institute’s Changing Course Podcast, we explore the concept of humanity’s movement toward collective maturity and what it means for our personal lives and efforts to contribute to social transformation.

Host Emily Chou sits down with Bob Blecher—educator, former attorney, and graduate of Wilmette Institute’s Social Transformation Certificate Program—to reflect on his journey of learning and service. Together, they discuss how expanding our understanding of reality, engaging in meaningful discourse, and generating new knowledge can help us move beyond inherited patterns and contribute to the advancement of our communities.

This episode is part of our ongoing exploration of the themes at the heart of the Social Transformation Certificate program.
