Episode 5: The conceptual lens
Ontology, cosmology, epistemology, ethical biome: get ready for the big Greek words. In this episode, we unpack our conceptual lens, a layered model to make sense of our work. But we are not only geeking out, or showing off our academic credentials. We also talk about dreams, care work, grieving, and connecting to the land.

Episode 4: Firekeeping
Yes, I stay, no matter what. In this episode, we speak about firekeeping as a long-term commitment to tending the flame, so that a group can become a vessel strong enough for deep inquiry.

Episode 3: Ecocentric leadership as stewardship
What if leadership was about tending to the whole, not optimising for a part? In this episode, we speak about stilling the mind, listening to dreams, plants, and riverbeds, and making decisions with our wider ways of knowing.

Episode 2: A culture of care and kinship
Culture is not something you can make alone. In this episode, we get practical: what has the World Ethic Forum actually learned about growing a culture of care and kinship? We speak about finding the whole world in a sip of water, and what shows up when a group goes deep.

Episode 1: Kinship with the more-than-human
What is it like to be in relationship with a mountain, or with a grasshopper? We go back to childhood memories, picking cherries and talking with a tree, to trace a connection that was never lost, only silenced, waiting to be nurtured again.
