Blogger @Medium
https://medium.com/@thehumaneconomistHuman Economics is an independent blog exploring the deep connections between economic systems, human well-being, and the biology of connection. It combines insights from neuroscience, psychology, anthropology, and policy to ask one central question: What would our world look like if we built it around nervous system health instead of profit?The blog challenges conventional economic thinking by reframing issues like mental illness, burnout, loneliness, and inequality as systemic, not individual, failures. Each post blends research with storytelling to make complex ideas accessible, while advocating for policies and cultural shifts grounded in human needs.Core themes include-Anthropological economics-Evolutionary psychology and cooperation-Attachment theory and gender roles-Systemic disconnection and social collapse-Pathways to collective healing and redesignWork from the blog has been featured in Medium’s Illumination and shared across academic, policy, and mental health spaces. New series and essays are published on a rolling basis.
