Jenny Andersson: The Power of place

Coconut Thinking

How might our stories be as unique as the place from which they unfold?

In this episode, I speak with Jenny Andersson. Jenny is the founder of The Really Regenerative Centre. She works as a strategist, facilitator and educator, supporting organizations and communities to create visions for the future they want – together – and to find the energy, will and approaches to sustain long-term change. She also leads the cohort Power of Place, which is collective learning journey in regenerative placemaking. The aim of the course is to provide a living systems and regenerative thinking approach to how we design our places so that they can become places in which humans can fulfill their potential and true roles and all life thrives in harmony – so that the places that are precious to us become Places For Life. We discuss:

🥥 How place provides an entry point into understanding the enormous complexities of systems and the dynamic relationships within them;

🥥 How understanding your bioregion is critical to education because it connects us to place, but also appreciates the uniqueness of every system and our place [within/as] it;

🥥 The nestedness of all things, or rather, the rhizomatic relationships that we have with all aspects of society and life.
