The Power of Partnership
What if there is a way to transform society and create a world that values caring, nature, and shared prosperity? The POP podcast brings you the voices of people who are doing just that - people who are applying the Partnership ethos, the ground-breaking alternative to Domination Systems that are the root of our most pressing challenges. The Partnership movement was pioneered by Riane Eisler, internationally acclaimed author of The Chalice and the Blade, Nurturing Our Humanity, Sacred Pleasures, Tomorrow's Children, The Real Wealth of Nations and many more! Each episode includes information about essential tools from the Center for Partnership Systems, and beyond, to move away from the domination paradigm and create a Partnership world!
The Power of Partnership
Paving the Way for Modern Masculinity with GenZer, Nick Cholmsky
In this inspiring conversation, Gen Z advocate Nick Cholmsky shares his personal journey from teen mental health advocate to co-founder of the Youth Resiliency Project.
Nick discusses how outdated models of masculinity are impacting boys, young men, and masculine identifying persons—and how using a partnership-based lens, rooted in Riane Eisler’s cultural transformation framework,
can help reframe strength, vulnerability, and connection. From TEDx stages to classrooms across North America, Nick is helping redefine what it means to be a man - or someone who is masculine identifying - in today’s world.
