Vulnerability, Trust & Transformations

Vulnerability, Trust & Transformations

In today’s episode, we are hanging out with an underdog: Vulnerability! For long, Vulnerability has been shamed and hidden, but that has been and is changing. In a world where our challenges, big or small, require us to think drastically differently to before - I am exploring what could be the potential of Vulnerability in creating the Future we would like our children to live in. Asking some key questions for us individually and collectively, such as: Can there be real trust in relationships without vulnerability?  Can there be innovative and bold transformations without vulnerability?  Can challenging collaborations last without vulnerability? Could we look at vulnerability as a key nutrient for a healthy society? and what would that change? Join me in this work in progress!

Secret life of Change

What if each Change occurring in and around our lives had a purpose of their own? A mind of their own? With their individual patterns of behaviours?  And that Changes choose us! What does that actually mean? How can we then take Changes in our stride, instead of feeling at their effect…? That’s are some of the questions and concept we are exploring on this week’s mad podcast !

Art & Us

“Through Art, we are being less guided by our mental voices and more by our inner senses.” (Alix Wheeler) What if creativity could be more than an atrophied muscle for us? Instead it could be an amazing doorway to creating a different future! How can practicing a form of Art, in our daily lives, become a wonderful medium for seeing beyond the set structures we are trying to evolve? - now AND for our future? In this episode I am sharing an experience I had as a participant of a fabulous Art event hosted by SEED 2065: - Reflecting on the power of the artistic creative process (in comparison to a more coporate creative process) and the mindblowing results! - As well as, the unsuspected benefits that #Art can have for us, for our family, our community and the wider systems we are contributing to. I hope you will enjoy the prompts, the provocations and have fun with it!! Let’s get Arty 🙂   —-- If you enjoyed it, don't forget to rate the show and subscribe to it. It helps more people find it!

The Wave that is coming!

In this 21st episode of the Futuring Lab, I wanted to develop a bit more on the event I have recently been to: ChangeNOW in Paris. An event aimed at pulling together the people working on creating a better future for all.  It’s the second year I have been to this event and I left again with such an expended perception of the world, a renewed energy and sense of community, that I wanted to share it with you! In this episode I share and explore with examples, the three major shifts that I have noticed in this conference: * The shift in narrative: The emerging future is more fun, more sexy, more resilient than the current (extractive) world we live in. * The shift in Power narrative: from Power over to Power With. * The shift in more traditional sectors (like finance): Their evolution is real and well, well considered on leading the way. Too often these amazing people, solutions and shifts are too hard to find, and to acknowledge, so instead, I am bringing some of their wisdom to your ears. I hope you enjoy this episode and leave as energised and with a renewed will to act, as I have! And please let me know your questions, thoughts or perceptions on either the event or my take on it.
