Health is Wealth
Manage episode 246453994 series 2533400
Buckle up, because we’ve reached the final episode of the podcast wherein we ask: what does it mean to do helping work in the context of a capitalist society?
Wellness entrepreneurship seems to promise to make health into wealth — but what about the other helping professions?
In this episode we look at David Graeber’s theory of Bullshit Jobs,* David Geary and Gijsbert Stoet’s study on the gender equality paradox, and continue our discussion on neoliberalism’s influence on wellness professions.
