Jess and Joanna are about to drop some serious gems that will leave you feeling inspired and empowered with practical guidance. Join us on this journey to demystify love in action and unleash its transformative power in our lives and organizations. Highlights: • Jess & Joanna's Respective Journey: Jess and Joanna share personal anecdotes that influenced their professional journeys. Jess bears witness to small town Palo Alto transforming into Silicon Valley and shares her involvement in promoting Star Trek conventions and exposure to diverse communities that sparked her imagination and curiosity about different economic structures. Joanna discusses her involvement with the Buen Vivir Fund, an international investment fund that stands apart from the norm. The fund's decision-making structure is based on grassroots practices for lending, emphasizing power sharing and instead of financial investors reaping all the rewards, the fund's growth goes back into supporting future projects. • The Love that Catalyzed the Book: The magic truly began when these two phenomenal women met at a women's leadership retreat. Jess wowed Joanna with her spoken word piece, igniting a connection fueled by radical imagination and a shared desire to challenge the structural issues of the economy. They became fast friends, crashing on each other's couches and deepening their exploration of power sharing and alternative ways of working. Little did they know that this friendship would evolve into the Beloved Economies research project, which exceeded all expectations and blossomed into the enlightening book we all need in our lives. • The Seven Transformational Practices: Jess & Joanna unpack the seven practices that emerged from their longitudinal research study, including 1) shared decision-making power, 2) prioritizing relationships, 3) reckoning with history, 4) seeking difference, 5) sourcing from multiple ways of knowing, 6) prototyping early and often, and 7) trusting there's time. Further, Jess & Joanna discuss how these practices interact and reinforce one another.
