We had such a rich conversation today exploring the intersection of AI, the heart, and the mind — sparked by Daniel Pink's A Whole New Mind. His premise: the future belongs to the human capacities that logic can't replicate. Which feels urgent now that AI has the left-brain stuff pretty well covered. So we asked: what do we bring that's irreducibly human? What came up in our discussion: 🌍 Context and culture — AI generates content, but humans understand why this story, for these people, right now 🌸 Embodied and feminine knowing — Nadene named it: AI was largely built without women at the table. That shapes what gets captured and what gets flattened. 🤝 Presence — touch, laughter, tears. We can't prompt for that. 💡 Forward thinking + emotional connection — imagining futures we haven't lived yet, holding space for what's unspoken Pink also named six human skills for the AI era, I've added them in visuals below. The question we're sitting with: how do we cultivate these capacities in ourselves and in the leaders we work with? What's your answer? What do you bring that AI can't? 👇

I thought I’d share our excitement with this amazing community. We’ll be hosting our first IDG Intro Session via LinkedIn Live on March 27. It’s a short 45-minute session where we’ll introduce the Inner Development Goals, share who we are, and what we hope to cultivate through the community. Our hope is to raise awareness and connect with more like-minded individuals who feel called to this work. Despite the excitement, we’re also feeling a few butterflies in our stomachs 🙂 It would be lovely to have you join us, or help spread the word to anyone who might find this conversation meaningful. https://shorturl.at/TGxJV Thank you! 💌 Amy

This is one of so many projects of indigenous stewards caring for the Earth. It holds a special place in my heart and I wanted to share it with you. I’ve always been in love with trees, especially old ones. In this 5-minute video, Inside Kanaka Bar’s Conservation Plan: Protecting Rare Ecosystems & Indigenous Culture, hear from Kanaka community members as they discuss their vision and the ecological and cultural significance of this protected area initiative. This project is on the west coast of Canada in British Columbia. What projects that care for the Earth do you hold close to your heart?

Being a part of the Presencing Institute community since it's very beginning, and have used TheoryU in the design of many gatherings that I have hosted and facilitated. I joined the first of five global gatherings yesterday. They hosted a 90-minute session with over 700 participants weaving together stories, music, breakout conversations, and collective reflection to explore the living connections between regenerative agriculture, human health, and new economic possibilities. I'm sharing a few of the images and phrases that stuck with me: Planting new seeds for new ways From extraction to regeneration Agriculture is culture Native bees are almost extinct Fall in love with the problem Both special guests were touched by a calling and curiosity to do something different with their lives. Despite their fear they allowed themselves to feel into it, to take risks because they had a strong belief in the importance of their ideas, and the impact they could have on people and the planet. They decided to experiment with what they were curious about and each took small steps with purpose, being brave enough to take the next step without having the answers. Christa was activated by soil, farming and community. Zuzanna by creating caring farmer communities. Christa went on to say that she surrendered to the process. Special Guests: Christa Barfield, Zuzanna Zielińska

Daniel Pink first came to my attention many years ago with his book "A Whole New Mind - Why Right Brain-ers Will Rule the Future". He's written seven bestselling nonfiction books on a range of topics, from human motivation to the science of timing to a graphic novel career guide. This 3min video he posted earlier this week on multiple platforms and I shared it on LinkedIn and here with you. Our invitation is to get more curious about it in our THINKING Skill Builder next Tuesday February 24th at 12.30 and we hope you'll be able to join. You can find the link to the call in the calendar. If you aren't able to join us, do let us know your thoughts in the comments 🤓 https://www.instagram.com/reel/DU6EL56jB2b/?utm_source=ig_web_button_share_sheet&igsh=ZDNlZDc0MzIxNw==
