Amidst all the pain and undeniable loss are windows opening? Silver linings?
I‘ve been crashing for a quarter of a year. It’s incredibly debilitating and simultaneously it is connecting.
Yes, I’m still on the floor but there’s surprising power and insight here into our collective dilemmas.
There is a clot between ourselves and our world. As I struggle through a month of covid vax side effects what is this telling me? Joining up my extraordinary care with meta-crises and personal crash times. Part 1
A vision? Immunity and the clot between ourselves and global crises. Extraordinary care for our meta-crises and personal crash times. Part 2
Going down. Immunity and the clot between ourselves and global crises. Extraordinary care for our meta-crises and personal crash times. Part 3
Our world is changing. Our thinking patterns are shifting. To answer our pressing emergencies and, fortuitously, engaging in this brings an aliveness like nothing else.
We’re a worldwide civilisation now and can consciously engage in creating thriving, just, sustainable futures for everyone. Yet, sometimes, this seems like a very lonely path…
We hope this site helps us all accelerate positive shifts. Amplification, re-storying and sharing awe…
Our future, ourselves, our planet and our stories, it’s all entangled ― Festina LentÍvaldi*

We don’t see things as they are, we see things as we are yet, in our pandemic we’ve been gifted connection to our ever-changing world. It’s a bridge to see beyond how we are.
Breath into February in this post.
Solving climate and equality crises takes a new script. That’s hard.
If we can expain quantum to our grandmas or grandkids our updated thinking patterns may stick.
We are in the midst of a major evolutionary leap. A dramatic increase in cooperation is possible.
Colaboration for climate, covid, injustice and inequality answers is essential. The New Possible showcases success.
You, I, we are breaking the social norms. In seeking solutions to global crises we’re creating new thinking patterns.
Our crises are not solved with the same level of thinking that created them—we’re going beyond the conventional patterns here.
Simple please, not simplistic.
Easily said but hard to do in our complex world. Music, poetry, pictures can all help the narratives. Enjoy these short videos!
Transformation is inevitable.
Yet, using approaches that involve seeing the system and its patterns, sense-making that constructs new narratives and connecting can herald purposeful transformation for human and planetary wellbeing
We navigate the world through stories. We tell ourselves them, create and hold on to them to make sense of complexity around us. What happens when they are past their use-by date? A new story is essential for scaling solutions. This is George Monbiot on these narratives and their power.
Our health, human, animal and nature are linked. We can create multiple benefits with solutions that reduce the likelihood of pandemics while simultaneously delivering sustainable food systems, restored environments and animal protection.
“Hasten slowly” said Augustus. Oh, this is hard. To imagine what can be created, to hold back, to act; to engage means delving into both despair and hope. That’s where we’re challenged to see the powerful in what we do which is always minimal and micro. Feeling adequate in the face of manifest inadequacy. Weaving together the pieces that hasten, slowly and steadily, benevolution.
