She Wonders with Ashley Grice Ashley Grice

From the diets we consume to the environments we call home, our ecosystems are fundamental to both our survival and our identity. But as issues like climate change and food shortages have shown, the human landscape is at risk of falling behind if we don't make systemic changes to how we live. In the 3rd season of She Wonders, CEO at BCG BrightHouse Ashley Grice wonders alongside visionaries leading the way in rebuilding a more inclusive world. In this episode, Ashley speaks to Montserrat "Tat" Bonvehi-Rosich, a landscape architect, urban designer, and lecturer at Harvard University Graduate School of Design. Tat challenges us to approach sustainable development by learning from—and empathizing with—living systems. She teaches us to study the full context and history of our surroundings, seek inspiration from cultures exhibiting extremes, and adopt a designers' dreamlike point of view. This conversation emphasizes that the North Star above us and soil below us must work together in charting a tomorrow built to last.

As we embark on the next era of innovation, filled with AI opportunity and purpose-driven tech, as well as ethical questions and social gaps, is this a chance to reimagine and rebuild the ecosystems that have defined our way of life?
