  • Summary

  • Following a brief power outage, Ava explores our dependence on the invisible force that powers modern life. Through conversations with someone who grew up without reliable electricity and observations of families affected by extended outages, she examines how thoroughly electricity has transformed human rhythms and possibilities in just over a century. The episode highlights electricity's democratic nature, its linguistic impact on our understanding of energy and connection, and the complex infrastructure that delivers this convenience. With the affirmation "I notice and appreciate the invisible systems that support my daily life," listeners are guided to newfound awareness.
