Force of Nature’s Post

Do you work at a climate or sustainability organisation? Do you feel the heaviness of the work, and desire a way to process, unlearn, and feel supported and resourced? In 2024, I'm setting the intention to bring climate resilience workshops to corporates. I've been developing and hosting these workshops over the last 3 years with Climate Action Community, and they're an integral part of our collective 'spirit' and #cultureofcare. These offerings are a heart-led way to activate and cultivate a culture of trust, 'being with' and compassion. My goal with this endeavour is to build more bridges between corporates, C-Suite execs, and grassroots activism to empower our collective mobilization towards climate action. By working with me, you'll also be a financial supporter of this work so that I can continue to host sessions for free or reduced rates to activist and frontline communities. Please reach out via DM or email at lauren.a.uba@gmail.com if this is something that you'd like to see in your company. Or, if you're an HR rep, please let me know if you have suggestions for how I can better communicate or otherwise improve this offering! #regenerativeleadership #embodiedleadership #decolonialthinking #climateaction #SDGs #InnerDevelopmentGoals #ESG

#iXSydney2024 Response to a panel discussion. Integrating eco-social justice is a values issue, challenged by a capitalist view of success. Indigenous cultures establish eco-social values from early childhood, maintained through life, through millennia. Cultural values in a capitalist society can adjust to build sustainable systems for social good. Start early.

In a world filled with challenges—climate change, inequality, and uncertainty—it's easy to feel overwhelmed by what needs to be done. But real change doesn't start with grand gestures; it starts with everyday actions.

The Voices of Impact are here to make #impact. Our first call of the Speakers who have joined Voices of Impact (so far) spiraled each of us into a higher resonance and trajectory. Besides talking about how each of us will elevate our own voices and visibility in the impact we make through our personal businesses, we began talking about how we can work together to elevate our community after the devastation of #HurricaneHelene. The #VoicesofImpact all have in common the attributes of radical innovation, brilliant minds, and regenerative practices. While this could just be a course to them, we have already set up a meeting for next week to talk about #RegenerateAsheville and the movement going on here. Our question is: What if regenerating Asheville after a natural disaster did not take the lengthy customary approach, and instead, we adopted a radically innovative timeline and approach? #Brilliant #Magic

As we navigate an increasingly complex world, it is evident that the crises we face are not isolated events but the consequences of deep-rooted systemic issues, some of which have been intensified by current business practices. However, businesses also hold the potential to be a pivotal part of the solution. Whether you’re leading a company or part of a team, your influence matters. By engaging your organisation to take action, you can multiply your impact and help drive the change we so urgently need. Just 12% of the UN Sustainable Development Goals are currently on track, and time is running out to achieve this global shift. In the build-up to Climate Week, Togetherband is doubling your positive impact for every band sold this month. For any successful referral to a business that makes a purchase, we will also send you a Together Product of your choice. Got a question or ready to get started? Please email togetherband@bottletop.org to discuss how we can elevate your company’s sustainability commitments. #sdgs #sustainabledevelopmentgoals #globalgoals #climateweek

As climate impacts intensify globally - from the #Jasper fires to extreme #heatwaves and #recordbreaking temperatures - eco-anxiety is on the rise. The challenges can feel overwhelming, but there are ways to navigate this emotional landscape. Our latest article explores how consensus building can be a powerful tool to combat eco-anxiety. By fostering open dialogue and collective decision-making, we can create #solutions that are #inclusive, #sustainable, and #empowering. In times of crisis, consensus-driven approaches can not only address the root issues but also give us a sense of agency and shared purpose. Together, we can transform anxiety into action. #EcoAnxiety #ConsensusBuilding #EnvironmentalMediation #ClimateAction #EarthResolveSolutions https://lnkd.in/eNgfAgEM
