This episode explores regeneration as a paradigm that extends beyond agricultural practices. Guest co-host Ethan Soloviev (HowGood) presents regeneration as a shift from extractive and conservative models toward systems creating net-positive impacts that honor the unique essence of each place and entity.
The discussion examines regeneration as a cosmology with indigenous roots that views systems holistically rather than as fragmented parts. Karen Rodriguez (Kiss the Ground) discusses how storytelling helps people connect with regenerative principles, describing regeneration as an “energetic force” requiring stewardship rather than just a set of practices.
Heather Terry (GoodSAM) explains how regenerative business models transform supply networks by prioritizing planet and people alongside profit, challenging conventional business paradigms. Her work with GoodSAM shows how businesses can create reciprocal value across international supply chains.
The conversation covers potential integrations of AI with regenerative systems, the significance of bio-regional uniqueness, and developing long-term regenerative plans. Paige Graham (Edelman) shares insights on communicating regenerative practices to consumers through human-centered storytelling and transparency.
The episode presents regeneration not merely as practices but as a way of thinking that can transform agriculture, business, relationships, and governance, providing an alternative to conventional extractive systems.
