Transformation
“Our future, ourselves, our planet and our stories, it’s all entangled” ― Festina LentÍvaldi*
On this page you’ll find stories about transformation. Enabling it. Helping to catalyse future potentials, alleviating much suffering for all.
Unfolding realities
One in fifty billion: At these odds I’m looking for what else is real and, while it does not serve me to hold onto conventional worldviews, unfolding into bigger realities is challenging.
Un-socialised
We all have developmental tethers. They are echos of our old selves. They are usually in various states of integration. Try exploring them while being gentle with yourself.
2.0 Conceptual to perceptual
A shift from conceptual to perceptual and how do I feel now?
I’m massively buoyed by all of the extraordinary collaborative components that are allowing and validating the positive changes within us all. You’ll see how alive this set of connections is in me in the cover picture too.
About transformations
Transformations is about emerging change—our world’s destabilising as some things get exponentially worse, some exponentially better. It can’t last and futures that encompass interlinked pieces—e.g. climate emergency solutions such as women’s access to education for fairness, equity and beneficial carbon drawdown—are what we can create.
If this sounds like a new level of thinking, it is! A paradigm shift, triple-loop change and new business models.
This page started with the Transformations 2019 conference in Chile. On the last day, Friday, 18 October, Santiago exploded. What’s happening in Chile mirrors pain and trauma around the world.
You’ll see Chile posts cover the events as well as interconnections and what we can do to help catalyse new futures, large system changes, justice and to address emergencies (including climate).

Easter unfolding
I am absorbed as I step into the galleries exploring a timeling of growth—our society changing for collecitve care.
It has been done in art. Done in enduring collective structures. And I feel deeply connected to the inner shifts that are developed and illustrated in these Florence galleries.
Integral: Emergence
This experiential dive into individual and collective emergence, explores generative listening, embracing polarities, and embodying presence. We will learn about and practice with awakened wholeness.
How to: Nurture the fields of change
ow? can we nurture holistic system change in the world? can we open to nature and collective wisdom? are mind, heart, body and spirit engaged in our work? do we inspire coherent action for transformational outcomes? do we experience and approach...

Upshift: recalibrating,(re)connecting, transitioning
Connect more
Marilyn Hamilton writes about our eve of reconnecting— consolidating and integrating learning, reinventing how we operate.
Insight: for change
Single, double and triple-loop learning to go deeper. This helps us to reframe and reconceptualise, to go deeper and be more effective, around the things we are working on and care about.

Make haste – slowly, powerfully, minimally
“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.
