In a world that celebrates constant motion, what wisdom might we discover if we simply... paused?

Heather Hiscox, founder of Pause for Change and author of "No More Status Quo," examines how our pursuit of immediate results creates a paradox in social change—we often recreate the very systems we aim to transform. This thoughtful conversation reveals how stepping back from the "move fast and break things" mentality opens space for deeper impact, and why slowing down might actually catalyze more meaningful progress.

From frustrated changemakers burning out while tracking activities instead of outcomes, to the power of gathering with shared purpose that transcends individual effort, Heather offers practical frameworks for transforming how we approach complex challenges.

In this episode, you'll discover:

• How "move fast and break things" mentality breaks people, communities, and trust (10:04)

• Why being a "frustrated changemaker" creates space for both anger and hope (11:44)

• The giant triangle of waste: how traditional problem-solving fails stakeholders (15:20)

• How bias shapes our approach to change work through powerful storytelling (30:04)

• The transformative power of leading with love and deep care in social impact (22:14)

Listen now to explore what becomes possible when we create space for reflection before action, building change that serves our shared future.
