The Great Unravelling and the Futures Council | 044
from The Social Regeneration Podcast · host Pia Hillebrecht
Why we as Change Agents need to continue composting and start organizing - and how we could do it This episode is for change agents, social entrepreneurs, and activists who feel that the old tools are no longer working and sense that something fundamentally different is needed. We explore why the transformation field is exhausted and fragmented, why burnout in crisis work is a collective trauma response rather than a personal failure, and what it might look like to slow down, follow seasonal rhythms, and let genuine transformation move through us before we try to push it out into the world. Simon and Christa, seasoned Changemakers, are building the Zukunftsrat, a Futures Council for change agents in the German-speaking space of this world, with a first pilot of around 80 people planned for autumn 2026. They are currently looking for collaborators and conducting interviews to shape what the field actually needs. If this conversation resonates, reaching out to them directly is the next step. 💡 HIGHLIGHTS of this Episode ✨ The transformation field is fragmented and largely invisible to itself ✨ Effective change requires inner transformation first ✨ Burnout is a collective trauma response, not a personal failure ✨ Community and relational trust are the antidote to crisis-mode isolation 👋 ABOUT Christa Cocciole & Simon Mohn Simon Mohn, is co-founder of Reinventing Society, a think-and-do-tank for systemic change and positive futures.
