## Resource

In this Danger Mouth episode, the team dissects "Meaning" via the ABCM model (Autonomy, Belonging, Competence, Meaning). Darrell defines meaning as the coherence between purpose, pattern, and participation. Personal drivers range from legacy and human connection to the joy of play. They analyze societal S-curves, arguing that crises require "Yellow" systemic thinkers to guide "Orange" executors. Ultimately, solving ethical contradictions and honoring human complexity are vital for navigating today’s global shifts.
