The Wicked Opportunities Podcast
The world is filled with Wicked Problems - incredibly complicated predicaments that don’t have simple solutions. However, the real problem isn’t our complex world, but rather our outdated mindsets. The way that we see the future directly impacts the actions that we take today, so a better world requires better visions. Join futurists Yvette Montero Salvatico and Frank Spencer each week as they use the Natural Foresight® Framework to reframe our Wicked Problems into the transformational ideas that they call Wicked Opportunities.
The Wicked Opportunities Podcast
New Year - New You?
Welcome to the 2026 season of the Wicked Opportunities podcast - launching The Intentional Spill, a weekly series of 15-minute, digestible, raw conversations (less prep, more truth). In the kickoff episode, Yvette Montero Salvatico and Frank Spencer (aka Dr. Juicy Owl) call out “marketed renewal” and the New Year, New You productivity trap, then make the case for Intentional Evolution: getting out of the happenstance dance and back into the driver’s seat of our lives, and our species. Expect everyday foresight as activism, a warning about the Evil E’s (extraction, exploitation, extrapolation, exponentiality), and a reframe of growth as emergence + submergence—because rest isn’t failure, it’s part of the cycle. Less machine. More garden. And please: don’t get deracinated from what wants to emerge. xoxo
