She has worked in a variety of roles, including as a Psychologist, a Family Therapist, a Drug & Alcohol Counsellor, Disability Support Case Worker, Foster Carer Trainer, Senior Lecturer, & in private practice as a psychotherapist & naturopath.
Some key points from the conversation include:
-
What complexity science is
-
The difference between a mechanistic or reductionist way of looking at things compared to seeing things through a holistic lens
-
How complexity & holism are similar as well as what distinguishes them
-
How change in one area of a system can affect things across the entire system (using the human body & changes to health as an example)
-
How humans are connected systems as individuals, but so are communities (human or otherwise)
-
As a species we have a primal yearning for connection
