The future starts today, with each of us. By embracing the present moment and setting bold and radical intentions now, we can begin to craft a stable, secure and bright future for people and planet. As we find ourselves faced with existential world problems, we must work together to realise and unleash the power of collaborative problem solving, embracing a regenerative mindset and engaging in broader group thinking to reimagine our fractured world. This audio piece by Sister True Dedication is taken from her inspiring talk at the Selfridges Group Mapping the Future festival in September 2022, in which we hear how through being present with one another, practising mindfulness, and living with intention, we can open our hearts to the diversity of our communities and unlock the transformative power of collaborative problem solving.
