Social Change Institute Podcasts

Back in May there was a conference up at Hollyhock that I was very sad to miss – the Social Change Institute. (I used to work for the Hollyhock Leadership Insitute and it's events like that that make me wish I still did...) It was a gathering of visionaries in the social change world, and it sounded pretty incredible. You can read my friend and colleage Jason's report-out at the Web of Change site.

Anyhow, the great good news is that they recorded audio on a few of the sessions, and have posted them at Rabble's podcast station. So go and have a listen! Apparently the Van Jones talk is pretty powerful. I'll be checking it out later today.

And if you're turned on by what you hear, you might just be interested in Web of Change. :) Amazing things happen at Hollyhock, that's for sure.

About this Site

A hodge-podge of random thoughts, musings, and links – sometimes about social change, sometimes about technology and the web, sometimes about yoga, and occasionally about knitting. Sometimes (because I'm a Canadian girl with deep roots in the British Isles) I even write about the weather.

I'm a yoga teacher, founder of Yoga for Geeks, and a freelance web writer, strategist, and project manager. I also help to co-create the amazing Web of Change Conference, every September in beautiful British Columbia.
