The Valley Current®: What Are We (Still) Learning from the Mayans?
Manage episode 508269342 series 3562100
What can the Mayans teach us about resilience, community, and sustainability today? In this episode of The Valley Current®, host Jack Russo sits down with Peace Corps volunteer Chris Hansen to uncover how timeless traditions are fueling modern change in rural Guatemala. From worm composting and mushroom farming to poultry co-ops led by women, Chris shares how grassroots projects are reshaping villages and creating new opportunities. Alongside these successes, he reflects on the setbacks (false FBI arrests, lost scholarships, and career hurdles) that tested his resolve and deepened his perspective. Together, Jack and Chris explore how ancient wisdom and modern innovation combine into a blueprint for sustainable living in the 21st century.
