I love this quote from Rumi.

We (certainly in the West) often focus on doing, creating, manifesting.
But just like in nature, the quality of what we create depends, fully, on the quality of the soil.

Your inner world shapes your outer reality.

So slowing down, turning inward, and observing yourself…
is not a luxury.
It’s essential.

And it doesn’t have to be forceful or overwhelming.
It can be gentle. Guided. Natural.

Do you feel a longing for a simpler, more natural way of living?
Or do you find yourself wondering: what’s next for me?

The Living Natural Law Scan is a personal deep dive into where you are in this moment.

Together, we explore what already flows in your life - and where more alignment is quietly waiting.

Not to fix anything.
But to bring clarity and awareness.

From that place, something shifts naturally.

When systems collapse, what are we left with? Relationships.

Relationships with each other. Relationships with our living planet. And relationships with ourselves — with our (emerging) Selves.

How can we upgrade practices, places, and purpose-embodying actions — for ourselves and for the systems we are part of?

I love Scharmers wisdom about seeds (where the future we want to create is already present now) and soil (the conditions that allow these seeds to take root and grow).

We know that the future is already here — but it first appears in the form of seeds: places of highest potential. Without good soil, however, these seeds cannot develop.

In periods of breakdown and breakthrough — of collapse and regeneration — two core capacities become essential:

- recognizing the seeds of highest future potential, and

- cultivating the social soil — the relational and awareness-based conditions that allow these seeds to grow.

Just as farmers need tools to cultivate the soil of the land, social farmers — all of us — also need tools to cultivate the social soil: the quality of our relationships and the quality of awareness from which we enact our social structures moment to moment (see image below).

Illuminating the blind spot of leadership — the cultivation of social soil — is at the core of the new collective-inner leadership work that the polycrisis facing our planet is calling for — it is the Call of our Time.

How are you — how am I — how are we responding to this call?

Alongside the Presencing Series, the Regenerative Futures Labs will offer a space to bring your concrete initiatives, projects, and questions into a shared field of inquiry and action — turning sensing and presencing into movement and real-world change.

In, really, all the areas covered in this book, I have lived, researched and experimented with exactly that, which the authors write about, over the past ten years.

Apparently I have become unconsciously competent in this. And now that I see that, it almost feels like my duty to throw this out in the open a bit more.

✅ In the field of work:
from the classic three-phase model (study, work, retirement) to a multi-phase model as a portfolio worker. (How wonderful that I finally have a word for that!)

✅ In the field of finance:
from a fixed monthly (good) salary to a focus on 'intangible assets'. As a result, I went back into the hospitality industry to earn money and with that I drove 😇 a number of people around me pretty crazy.

✅ In the field of relationships:
work in progress... From "this is apparently how it works" to researching, negotiating and experimenting in every phase of life how it could be done.

What this book gives me is as much courage as despair.

I have been a kind of unintentional pioneer on many of these themes for years. Not because I wanted to be at the forefront, but because I had no choice but to investigate. And now it feels very natural to have an open conversation about it.

So: if you are curious about what a 100-year life could look like (not in terms of age, but in terms of the way of working, learning, connecting and developing), then you are very welcome at the garden in Amsterdam in June/July.

Just person to person.

For coffee, lunch, a drink or a walk.

My only condition? That you are really curious about how you can apply this in your own life, work or environment. 🙏

Then I look forward to your mail or DM. 🤗
