    Lieven Callewaert

    In this conversation, social entrepreneur Lieven Callewaert shares his personal and professional journey toward fostering regenerative systems. His quest began with a longing for simplicity, a stark contrast to the complex life he was leading. A pivotal moment was the complicated birth of his second child, Amber, which shattered his perception of conventional systems and catalyzed a profound reconnection with himself, nature, and community. This journey ultimately led him from Belgium to a small, close-knit island community near Vancouver, Canada. Lieven explains that true, simple connection is the precondition for creating coherence in any group. His work focuses on creating the conditions for deep listening and helping people remember what truly connects them. He emphasizes "place-based" approaches, arguing that physical location provides a natural boundary and common ground that facilitates genuine conversation. By fostering a safe space where a group's collective wisdom can emerge, it's possible to move beyond conflict and toward shared direction and action. The conversation then explores the challenge of applying this "inside-out" approach to drive large-scale systemic change. Lieven notes the frustration that only about 1% of investors and leaders grasp this deep, preparatory work. The solution, he argues, is not to talk about change anymore but to manifest it in tangible projects, such as innovative housing developments. By creating "living labs," it's possible to demonstrate new, regenerative models that can attract capital and challenge existing regulations. He concludes that the key is to remember our innate wisdom and our fundamental sense of belonging—to ourselves, to each other, and to the natural world—as the foundation for building a regenerative future.

    Felipe Amaral

    Felipe Amaral’s journey reads like the plot of an inspirational film. Born into privilege in southern Brazil, he initially followed the well-trodden path: business school, a prestigious corporate job in suit and tie, and parents bursting with pride. Yet inside, Felipe felt increasingly hollow. Disenchanted by the corporate world’s promise, he traded his polished office for volunteer roles at leading nonprofits—only to confront the practical reality that passion alone doesn’t pay the bills. Battling depression, he turned to psychoanalysis to rebuild his sense of self, and in the process discovered a powerful truth: genuine curiosity, when coupled with the ability to create value, becomes the key to personal autonomy. Armed with that insight, Felipe co-founded Instituto Cloudera Data, a 22,000 m² innovation hub powered by a coalition of Brazil’s biggest companies, government agencies, universities, and nonprofits. His boldest vision: Data Generation, an ambitious educational pipeline that each year draws 20,000 applications from underserved Brazilian youth. Two months of rigorous online training winnows the field to 200 scholars, who then spend six months living and learning inside Cloudera Data’s real-world tech environment—where they absorb workplace culture, build networks, and prepare for careers. The payoff? A staggering 90 percent of graduates walk straight into jobs with the very companies that championed their training. But Felipe knows that hard skills alone aren’t enough. He has woven “safe-space circles” into every program, encouraging participants to share their struggles—from fractured family ties to self-doubt—so they can see that their challenges are not unique. This rare vulnerability becomes the glue that unites people across sectors and social strata, transforming a mere “innovation hub” into a living, breathing community. Now, Felipe invites changemakers from around the globe to witness this experiment in action at Cloudera Week, September 29–October 3 in Porto Alegre. Five days of keynotes, side-events, and what he playfully calls “Disneyland for careers” will bring 15,000 innovators together to explore education, sustainability, and the future of work. If Felipe’s story proves anything, it’s that when vision collides with relentless execution—and when you place human connection at the center—transformational change not only happens, it thrives.

    Anupa Dasgupta

    In this riveting episode of Team Blickkontakt, guest Anupa Dasgupta takes us on a journey through her layered identity and the evolution of her creative career. Opening with reflections on self-belief and the power of the universe, Anupa explains how growing up in a culturally rich, joint-family environment instilled in her a deep-rooted sense of belonging and community—a legacy passed down from her grandmother’s tradition of nurturing and hosting. Anupa shares her unique trajectory from fashion design to service design, emphasizing that her early passion for sketching and the tactile world of clothing was just the beginning. Over time, she discovered that these creative processes could be translated into solving real-world challenges. This realization paved the way for her shift into community-based design strategies and, eventually, into the dynamic realm of emerging technology and Web3. Throughout the conversation, she dives deep into what it means to build community coherence. Anupa outlines how a shared ethos—fueled by values like kindness, empathy, and accountability—forms the backbone of any thriving community. She discusses the necessity of creating safe, engaging spaces where members can bond over common goals, emphasizing that true connection goes far beyond superficial interactions. Moreover, she touches on the complexities of crafting incentive structures in the Web3 space; these structures must resonate with the community’s inherent values rather than feel forced or gimmicky. The discussion also highlights the transformative power of embracing failure as a learning tool—a mindset Anupa credits for helping her pivot and grow despite setbacks. Overall, her insights present a compelling blueprint for how individuals and communities can co-create a “good life” by aligning personal creativity with innovative, collective action in the digital age.

    Adam Newman

    In this provocative episode of Team Blickkontakt—the new voice for the regenerative market economy—we dive deep into the art of creating community coherence with special guest Adam Newman. The conversation immediately challenges conventional norms by asking Adam to reveal his true self. Eschewing the traditional “name, location, and job” introduction, Adam describes himself as a divine being on a transformative journey, one that began in the rugged landscapes of Colorado and evolved into a life of radical community engagement in the heart of Rio de Janeiro’s favelas. Adam’s story is one of soulful rebellion: from battling childhood bullying and societal conditioning to embracing his spiritual essence, he explains how his early connection with nature and innate sensitivity set him apart. Now residing in a low-income urban community, Adam has dedicated his life to bridging worlds—uniting the realms of abundance and scarcity, and transforming the painful legacies of exclusion into opportunities for collective empowerment. The dialogue explores how deep, personal deconstruction of one’s conditioned identity can ignite the process of communal healing. Adam recounts his hands-on experience in the favelas, where he and his team mapped social projects and built a digital platform to strategically distribute aid during crises like the pandemic. By leveraging technology and fostering genuine human connections, he demonstrates how physical spaces and shared experiences can catalyze unity among diverse groups—whether it’s a police officer offering free guitar classes or community leaders forming innovative alliances. Throughout the episode, themes of unconditional love, vulnerability, and the relentless pursuit of individual happiness as a pathway to collective transformation resonate. Adam’s insights underscore the idea that the foundations for a better world are already within us; they just need to be awakened, connected, and co-constructed. This thought-provoking conversation serves as a call to action, inviting listeners to reimagine how embracing our divine essence and shared humanity can pave the way for a more coherent, joyful, and resilient future.

    Season 2 - Team Blickkontakt - Start

    Willkommen zur Sonderfolge des Podcasts der Initiative Regenerative Marktwirtschaft – wir starten in die zweite Saison! Sebastian und Thomas reflektieren heute gemeinsam über die Erkenntnisse aus Saison 1 zum Thema "New Wohlstand" und geben spannende Einblicke, was uns in Saison 2 erwartet: das Projekt „Team Blickkontakt“. In der ersten Saison haben wir intensiv diskutiert, wie Wohlstand neu definiert werden kann – weg von rein finanziellen Kennzahlen, hin zu einem umfassenden Verständnis, das Gesundheit, Beziehungen, Natur und Sinnhaftigkeit einschließt. Inspiriert von Walisern, die mit dem "Future Generations Well-being Act" eine gesellschaftliche Vision für ein gutes Leben geschaffen haben, haben wir Methoden wie die „8 Kapitalformen“ vorgestellt und in Salons, Workshops und Bürgerräten erfolgreich erprobt. Saison 2 baut auf diesen Erfahrungen auf und bringt einen noch stärkeren Fokus auf junge Menschen. Das Projekt "Team Blickkontakt" möchte die Selbstwirksamkeit der jungen Generation stärken und vor Ort regenerative Lösungen entwickeln. Ziel ist es, lokale Initiativen zu starten, die von jungen Menschen getragen werden und Gemeinschaften unterstützen, nachhaltige und selbstbestimmte Wege zu einem guten Leben zu finden. Freut euch auf inspirierende Gespräche mit Experten, Pionieren und Praktikern, die Erfahrungen darin haben, Menschen zusammenzubringen und gemeinschaftliche Visionen in konkrete Aktionen umzusetzen. Seid dabei und gestaltet mit uns gemeinsam einen regenerativen Wohlstand der Zukunft! Kontakt: T@IRM-Foundation, S@IRM-Foundation Mehr Infos: www.regenerativemarktwirtschaft.org
