What is more scary: letting go, or becoming?
​In this year-end finale, Cory J Riggs explores the irrationality of the human ego—the part of us that would rather stay in a familiar hell than risk an unknown heaven. Drawing from his own 45-year journey back to the "little dude" he left behind in the 5th grade, Cory challenges the idea that staying guarded is the safe path.
​As we stand on the edge of 2026 and the "Industrial Arc," we discuss why keeping humanity at the center of our lives is the only way to navigate a world dominated by AI and technology.
​Turn the mirror around. Look with empathy. Let’s start the work.
​Season 2 of "The Tree and Me" begins this Sunday.
