We explore eco-awakening, a supershift moving us beyond sustainability toward regenerative systems that restore, replenish, and heal our planet. This episode examines how businesses, governments, and communities can transform from simply reducing harm to actively creating positive environmental impact through regenerative approaches.

• Regeneration differs fundamentally from sustainability by focusing on healing systems rather than just reducing damage
• Regenerative agriculture rebuilds soil health and biodiversity while often improving yields and reducing costs
• Companies are embracing regeneration through circular supply chains and net-positive impact models
• Regenerative thinking requires systems thinking—seeing relationships rather than isolated outcomes
• Real-world examples include buildings that clean air, mushroom-based textiles, and ecosystem-restoring financial instruments
• The regenerative economy offers significant opportunities for entrepreneurs and innovators
• Each person can contribute by asking how their decisions affect broader systems
• Leaders can incorporate regenerative principles into strategy, design, HR practices, and product development

Join us next episode as we shift focus to "social quake" and explore how trust, institutions, and community structures are being transformed.
