Alan Booker is the founder of the Institute of Integrated Regenerative Design, cloud computing expert, herbal medicine and integrated health practitioner.
Alan has deep knowledge of dynamic systems thinking, technology, neural network, and nature. He also has a holistic approach to making America sustainable again.
We dive deep into critical thinking, the addiction science of technology, why we were all indigenous groups, the power of neural networks, and more.
Expect to learn a ton of insights into the complex interplay between technology, culture, and nature—directly from an expert's perspective.
