10 % of American women are diagnosed with Endometriosis.

That is millions of women!

Worldwide, fertility issues and inflammation related diseases are extremely relevant topics.

In this episode Matilda Rosengren is sharing her personal experiences with fertility and Endometriosis and her motivation to start her online platform Mind and Womb which offers tools and support to those women trying to conceive.

This episode is not only for female ears! Fertility issues are wide spread and equally distributed between men and women.

The understanding regarding women's cycles and the need for rest and slowing down in work and personal life especially, but not only, when dealing with Endometriosis and the toll it can take on body and mind, can definitely be improved.

Matilda shares the rad to her diagnosis, treatments she has undergone and how she has used self-practices like yoga and womb massages to re-connect to her body.

Erik G. Turner has a background in chemical and process engineering and started his career in the Pharma industry.

Currently working for Neustark, an ETH spin off which works in the carbon removal space, transforming old concrete and CO2 into recycled concrete, he is contributing to the transformation of one of the largest waste streams in the world.

Erik got interested in sustainability in 2018, joining the NGO YES Europe, a youth led initiative focusing on a sustainable energy transition.

His thoughts center around identifying leverage points we have as a society to make change happen, around complexity and ambiguity and about "living the questions", which is very much what this episode is about.

We explore the topics of "tools" (which will we be choosing to address different crisis),

the "simple solutions trap" presented by politics and industry and why Erik's honest answer to: which solutions he is seeing at the moment -

is quite shockingly "none!"

This is an episode of exploration and questioning and we do hope you enjoy listening🌱

Cate Zoltan is CEO of the Undo App, which is designed to activate self-healing through deep body meditations.

In this episode we discuss how Cate found her way to the concept of natural meditation, what it means to live a more "natural life" and how we can re-connect with our "original self" through meditation, which requires slowly carving our way back to who we are at our core, seeing through the experiences, information and all else that is imposed onto us throughout our lives and daily.

We ask how important TRUST is and why the lack of trust in our capabilities, in the world, in each other may be informing much of the un-kindness, insecurity or even hatred that is also present at these times.

We answer the question, why all of this matters -

This internal work, the attention to mental health, deep connection, emotional intelligence...

If not simply for our own sakes, think of the farmer providing your food, a teacher or a supreme court judge.

All of their decisions and impacts, no matter how big or small will be informed by their worldview, their relationship and connection to themselves, their biases and morals.

This will impact their town, a nation, in a wider sense, the world and might mean the difference between:

Petrochemicals or farming with the rhythms of nature.

Providing safe spaces for children to thrive or pushing for discipline and silence.

Verdicts informed by a drive to exert power and having a distrust towards certain cultures or verdicts motivated by the will to make a positive change, to build trust in the law and make people's lives easier, not harder.

It always starts with us, whether we think us important or not - we are. Every living being has an impact on their surroundings and the world and how we tread this earth matters greatly.

Our healing journey will have ripple affects.

Our connection to ourselves will impact our external connections.

If you are presently embarked on a healing journey, we are sending our loving wishes,

if you would like to try another tool or take new steps towards healing, maybe you will find it with Undo

Four extraordinary days in the Engiadin Valley in La Punt, Switzerland.

Nestled in between mountains, next to a river where cool, clear water flows steadily is where [y]our2040 found its place for the third time since 2020.

I was so very blessed to be part of the Team that delivered [y]our2040 in the summer of 2023 and it had me absolutely hooked.

Four days of incredible conversations around all topics mainly centered around regeneration.

Regeneration of communities, natural habitats, connections, communication, spirit, systems, oceans, soils, economies...

Critical, challenging, loving, discussions and sharing of opinions.

Around 100 participants coming together to work on over 10 different projects that should serve a regenerative purpose, carried out and nurtured far beyond the gathering.

Music in the background, painting, writing, dancing, laughter, tears, ideas.

People from different backgrounds with different mind sets and visions, yet at a closer look fundamentally similar, walking barefoot from one tent to the next, forming a community that feels like family after only a couple of days.

I recorded tiny live conversation snippets with about 30 people to put them together into one episode that explores the outlooks on the concept of regeneration that must be central to our present and future actions.

One word, many interpretations.

This is explored in this episode of SageTalking with a foreword from one of the founders, Jonelle Simunich 🌱

Tobias Luthe is a professor at ETH Zurich, teaching in the fields of resilience and complex systems, systemic design and regenerative systems, traveling and adventuring through different countries and landscapes.

Powered by a passion for outdoor sports, exploration and the active participation in regeneration.

Tobias grew up in a very natural setting, immersed in nature and being introduced to building, making firewood and winter sports in particular in his childhood, setting a foundation of deep trust in one self and life, described as "Urvertrauen" (deep trust) in the German language.

Tobias recognizes that this groundedness set him up to be creative, adventurous and entrepreneurial as an important skill set when engaging in regeneration.

In this episode we also touch on his work at Mon Viso Institute in the Italian Alps in the village of Ostana which is a University Mountain Campus acting as a real world lab in the fields of sustainability and regeneration.

Tobias shares a story of accidental de-generation of soil at the Campus and the journey of learning, questioning and exploring that never stops and highlights the importance of "playing in the un-plannability of the real world"🌍🌿

Who we are as people, how we feel and receive ourselves, the state of our health, purpose, connection to nature and community determines our interactions, beliefs, choices in regards to the ways we act towards earth, other people etc.

Nathan Maingard describes himself as having been a misfit in our society at a young age.

Not fitting into the boxes that school, society, government, predetermined, which all seemed a skin too tight for him.

In this episode he shares how he transformed from thinking he was the problem, acting out and feeling out of place, to living his truth and supporting other people in that journey as well.

We reflect on the way many of us feel out of place or forced into structures and the fallacy of "this is just the way things are".

Nathan argues that we ARE ALL already FREE.

That with the decisions to show up for ourselves and making choices from the moment we get up in the morning that set ourselves up for peace and well-being, we are freeing ourselves.

There is a place for everyone to bring value to themselves and community. We need to foster a society and atmosphere that let's everyone contribute, because everyone CAN. There is no useless or valueless person. We all have hands, feet, mouths, eyes, ears and brains to use.

Each in their own way and we must let go of the constraints that say that there are only certain predetermined and economically imposed ideas that determine which inputs are worth anything.

This way we can let go of feelings of uselessness of not being enough of being "misfits" in a society of essentially a majority of "misfits" that are struggling along, working against themselves and natural cycles and rhythms.

"people sitting around a fire with their families, who are at peace with themselves, who have purpose and connection and live with the rhythms of nature won't even look up to listen to that pained, disconnected person coming along, proposing to start a war or plunder another family's home."

The ME reflects the WE and it starts with I 🌱

We are 100 % capable of creating a different reality and making change one person, one family, one community, one city, one nation, one world....at a time -

One that flourishes and harmonizes a hell of a lot more than it does right now🌍💚

John Fullerton imagines a world where we are not breaking the planet's boundaries with our economics.

He argues that we have a superbly functioning model of living systems around us, which is regenerating all the time, that we could orientate ourselves toward.

In this episode we Talk about clear design principles and processes that are important for us to consider in order to create a global regenerative economy.

To read more about John's ideas feel free to dive into the 8 principles of a regenerative economy

After a 20 year career as a managing director on Wall Street, John has seen the violence that can occur when it comes to the world of finance and business.

We Talk about the mindset shift that happened for him and his path to exploring alternatives to the neoclassical economy.

Does it work to speak to the consciousness of investors and shareholders alike?

If we offer different alternatives that align more with natural rhythms will they be welcomed or do people stick to what they know?

What does the regenerative economy look like, respecting cultural, geological and other differences?

Possibly you will find an example of a regenerative economy at your town's very own farmers market

which in John's eyes already IS the regenerative economy 🥦🍉🌼

"We're not going to have one model that everyone replicates. There will be expressions of this that will happen organically all over the world."

📣We want to encourage you to ask yourselves and family members the question: "What does a regenerative economy look like, to me?"

At first it can be a micro economy only including your own household or a small town - if you like you can go national or even global.

The more innovative and "developed" societies become, the more complex the issues within them -

and today every issue seems to make its way to span the globe, asking for ever more complex solutions to ever more confusing problems that

seem to be well stocked.

Have we become too innovative for our own species to handle the issues that arise from all the developments?

Or have many societies reached a point of so much wealth and comfort that we are now simply creating problems? - or innovations first, that create problems to then have to solve them?

Thinking about this too long feels like mentally doing the splits on a bicycle, but me and Nelly really had the need to try and unpack this and through honest conversation get closer to some of the root causes and closer to core truths (if there are any).

*disclaimer here: many issues touched on in this podcast might be misinterpreted, not all you say in a flow of conversation is completely 100 % refined and planned or will be understood by a third party exactly as it was meant since use of language differs and is spontaneous in a flow of conversation + just because we don't agree with the craziness, confusion and division sown around different topics does not mean we don't agree they are generally important or that all people (unless they show they deserve otherwise) should be treated with respect and kindness*

We touch on the topics like political correctness and political affiliation, identity markers and the issues that arise form putting people into categories and boxes that overlook all other facets and nuances that we humans bring with us.

We try to discover if it were the case that we could strap away much of the BS and generally treat one another and earth with respect - could we begin focusing on the things we KNOW fulfil the basic, biological needs of human beings, the things that are important to ALL of us...?

🎨👨🏼‍🌾👩🏼‍🌾community, collaboration, working and living with the rhythms of nature, connection, intellectual pursuit and conversation, creativity, self-sufficiency, family, realization of physical and intellectual potential, exploration...🥗🍉🥦🌳🥀

We invite you to try and listen to this Talk as a neutral observer - to see where it takes all of us and not let it quickly confirm a bias or highlight disagreement -- then literally or figuratively open your eyes at the end of the Talk and see where your mind is at and which pathways of thinking it has taken you on🌼

maybe this approach could be an antidote for all of us in this time where quick judgement and narrow categorization of people and information is very prevalent
