*****
Tonight our conversation will revolve around how Jess became a Silicon Valley Tech strategist, then arrived at a fundamental reorientation in her practice, from thriving within the technology ecosystem as it is, to sensing its exponential AND systemic effects on Life itself, & finally towards focusing exclusively on the regenerative capacity of exponential tech.
After this turning point, Jess also committed to helping others to direct their work towards prosocial, restorative, & "glocal" impacts themselves.
How might we continue our work in building new technological systems-- both digital & social-- with an orientation on the "just, distributive, & regenerative" potential of these tools?
How do we all narrow in on Jess' three C's: Cohering, Cross-Pollinating, & Committing together to building genuine well-being & fulfillment into our technologies going forward?
