My latest Substack piece considers the case for accounting for real value. wayouteconomics.substack.com/p/way-out-of... #valuebeyondmoney #wayouteconomics #countwhatmatters

I've been developing my #CountWhatMatters app a bit more. You can now add actions for days in the past, not just today. The friends feature is working again. And you can now hi-five a friend if you think they've been doing well. countwhatmatters.base44.app

I went to a voluntary sector conference in Somerset last week focused on working #upstream. It inspired me to write something on Substack once again... open.substack.com/pub/wayoutec... #WayOutEconomics #ValueBeyondMoney

I've done something I thought I would never do! I've created a little web app called #CountWhatMatters: countwhatmatters.base44.app I'll be writing about why I'm doing this soon, but in the meanwhile, do follow the link and join this tiny new community. #valuebeyondmoney #degrowth #polycrisis

I'm on Spotify! I was invited onto Phillip Ullmann's The Manna Journey podcast. He kindly credits me with changing his thinking about money. We had a great convo. Phillip laid out his vision for a People Powered Ledger. creators.spotify.com/pod/profile/...

I've been writing on Substack again, this time on the nature of money and the need for a way out. #degrowth #valuebeyondmoney #polycrisis open.substack.com/pub/wayoutec...

I found another bit of time to share some ideas on Substack - this time all about #degrowth - what, why and how? #wayouteconomics #valuebeyondmoney wayouteconomics.substack.com/p/way-out-of...

This autumn, I've decided to spend some time trying to communicate my alt economic ideas. I'm starting off today with my first ever Substack post. If you read it and like it, please share it! open.substack.com/pub/wayoutec...

Way Out Economics

Is there a way out of the current economic system?

Hooray! The audio version of #ValueBeyondMoney is now live on Audible! bit.ly/4mEwuho

One year ago today, #ValueBeyondMoney was published. I was hoping the audio book would be launched today to celebrate, but there are some ongoing technical issues. So instead, I thought I'd post a picture of me in my birthday suit! (Some PJs given to me by a friend...)

For many months, I've been spending my spare time with this set up in my bedroom - recording and editing the audio version of my book #ValueBeyondMoney. But the end is in sight, and within a few weeks it will at last be available to the public!

I'm very flattered to have been invited to be part of a panel discussion at the Frome International Climate Film Festival @climatefilmfrome.bsky.social , on 18th May at Cheese and Grain in Frome. You can get tickets here: www.cheeseandgrain.com/events/clima... #polycrisis #frome #ValueBeyondMoney

I was so pleased that the think tank Disrupt Development published my recent article. So nice to find some people who think like me. You can read it here: www.disruptdevelopment.org/news/is-degr...

Is Degrowth Compatible With Progress?

The narrative of progress is central to most of the human histories we are told. Sure, there are wars, famines and droughts along the way, but overall, humanity’s lot has improved. This is evidenced b...

Really proud to be part of the Our Economy project by Arkbound, resulting in this ebook, free at arkbound.ac.uk/publications.... My chapter starts: "I’d like to start with an admission ... I am not an economist ... But this lack of credentials is precisely why I feel it is important that I write"

It was not a 'shouting match' @jeremybowen.bsky.social @bbcradio4.bsky.social #bbcradio4thetodayprogramme. It was public humiliation. The shouting was only in one direction. It was not a match.

My presentation at last summer's Monetary Diversity conference in Liege is up on YouTube - with many thanks to @nicolasfranka.bsky.social for arranging the event and sharing the learnings. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Wmkp...
