Realizing Potential

Lessons from Seeds + Regenerative Practice

Regenerative practice requires that we approach everything from a perspective of potential, rather than problem-solving. This subtle shift changes everything.

This episode is an excerpt from a private podcast feed hosted exclusively within The Vision Society, a mastermind and incubation community for spirit-led founders building vision amidst global polycrisis.

In this series, Ganga Devi and Dajé Aloh, aka The Story Doula are weaving their respective wisdom threads around the Seven Principles of Regeneration, originally articulated by Carol Sanford.

They share insights on how to shift from problem-solving to potential-focused strategies in small and micro businesses. This episode gives listeners a glimpse into the ongoing experiments within the Vision Society, where the principles of regeneration are applied to business development.

The episode emphasizes the uniqueness and limitlessness of potential within living systems, and how these concepts can be practically applied to entrepreneurial settings. Ganga and Daje provide actionable advice on nurturing potential in environments that are often challenging. They stress the importance of rooting into one's ecosystem, the necessity of gratitude, and the power of structural support and discernment. This content-rich episode is not just a theoretical dive but offers concrete steps for actualizing regenerative principles in daily life.

Key Takeaways:

  • Potential is Unique and Limitless: Every person or project holds unique and boundless potential, which can be realized under the right conditions.

  • Rooting into Your Ecosystem: Effective growth in both personal and professional realms requires strong connections within one's wider environment and community.

  • Boundaries and Discernment: Setting boundaries and having high standards for yourself and your environment are crucial for nurturing and realizing potential.

  • Gratitude as a Tool: Regularly practicing gratitude helps you focus on the supportive elements of your current environment, empowering further growth.

  • Embracing Life's Challenges: Rather than viewing challenges as setbacks, consider them essential growth opportunities within the life-death-life cycle.
