#9 Real Estate as a Driver of Change with Frank Sippel.

How can we facilitate the many chrysalis cells for the emerging, regenerative paradigm that are so far often not connected, when already aligning groups is quite challenging? We truly need groups of groups that share a common North Star, all while they still pursue their own goals, obviously. This is an undertaking that has never been done before on a global scale. But we know leaps in history are possible, from the abolition of slavery, the women’s liberations movement, the end of Apartheid, the fall of the Berlin wall.

What could be a new way to imagine politics?
In this episode we are diving deep into the weeds of Citizen Action Networks (CAN). We reflect how much of the inner worlds we all inhabit, from the trauma we hold, to the memetic center of gravities that steer our perception of reality, to the culture we need to nourish, for a “Politics of Waking Up”.

We live in times where it is obvious that the current economic paradigm cannot uphold much longer. In this week’s session we are going to focus on very hands-on examples that redefine impact investing, to ensure that the human factor and wellbeing is counted in, as well as sense into intergenerational investment and new ways to create impact through multi-stakeholder relationships, breaking up the barrier between classical philanthropy and impact investing.

we delve into the intersection of technology, culture, and consciousness with two pioneering minds, Stephen Reid and Michael Garfield. In this insightful discussion, we uncover the principles of Technological Metamodernism, a dynamic approach that combines technology with metamodern philosophy to address the complexities of our rapidly changing world.

we’re diving into a transformative conversation with the brilliant minds behind Life Itself. Join us as we explore their groundbreaking vision for a Second Renaissance—a movement to fundamentally reshape our world. We’ll delve into their Theory of Change, discuss how they stand out from other initiatives, and learn about their concrete prototypes and aspirations for the future. Get ready to be inspired by Sylvie Barbier and Rufus Pollock as we uncover how Life Itself is catalyzing radical systemic change. Stay tuned for a conversation that promises to redefine the way we think about cultural evolution and societal transformation.

We are living in a world where meditation has become a commodity and the spiritual market is booming. There is meditation for burn-out prevention, to alleviate stress, to make managers more successful, for better sleeping. It is sold as a panacea for roundabout everything. And exactly that we are going to debunk in this week’s episode.
