  • Awareness Before Answers: Navigating a Fragmented World with Will Steel
    Mar 29 2026

    Ep 233 One World in a New World with Will Steel


    Questions the Episode Explores:


    What role does awareness play in how we experience reality?

    How does fragmentation show up in our thinking and perception?

    What changes when we stop reacting and start observing?

    Can clarity emerge without forcing answers?

    How do we navigate complexity without becoming overwhelmed?


    What if the answers we’re searching for aren’t found by thinking harder… but by seeing more clearly?


    In this episode of One World in a New World, Zen Benefiel sits down with Will Steel for a deeply reflective conversation on awareness, perception, and the subtle ways fragmentation shapes our experience of life.


    Rather than offering quick solutions, Will invites us into something more fundamental—an exploration of how we observe, interpret, and respond to the world around us. As we begin to notice the patterns in our thinking and reactions, a different kind of clarity starts to emerge.


    This isn’t about fixing problems.

    It’s about seeing them differently.


    And in that shift, something opens.


    If you’ve been navigating uncertainty, questioning old assumptions, or sensing that there’s more beneath the surface of everyday experience, this conversation offers a grounded and thought-provoking space to explore that.

  • Coherence: The Missing Piece in Every Team with Quinn Stainfield-Bruce
    Mar 22 2026

    Ep 232 One World in a New World with Quinn Stainfield-Bruce


    Most leadership problems aren’t strategy problems…

    They’re coherence problems.


    In this episode of One World in a New World, Zen Benefiel sits down with Quinn Stainfield Bruce, visionary and co-founder of Humanness, to explore why alignment—not effort—is the missing piece in leadership, teams, and personal growth.


    As complexity rises, many try to solve challenges by pushing harder, doing more, or refining strategy. But Quinn reveals a deeper truth: when vision, values, communication, and action fall out of sync, performance suffers—no matter how capable the people involved are.


    In this conversation, you’ll discover:


    Why most breakdowns are rooted in misalignment, not lack of skill


    How coherence creates clarity in individuals and teams


    Why trust isn’t built—it emerges under the right conditions


    How to move from control and effort → awareness and alignment


    This isn’t about quick fixes.

    It’s about seeing what’s really happening beneath the surface—and shifting from there.


    If you’re a leader, entrepreneur, or someone navigating complexity in today’s world, this episode offers a powerful reframe that can change how you approach everything.
