Sunday, April 13, 2025, from 12:00 p.m. - 1:30 p.m. PDT - A New Republic of the Heart is offering a webinar: Taking Responsibility for the Leading Edge of Consciousness: Evolving in a Shifting World.


"​We stand at a critical juncture—a moment of profound cultural tension and transformation. The values that have shaped our collective pursuit of a more just and sustainable world are being fiercely contested, revealing a fundamental struggle around meaning, belonging, and the frameworks through which we make sense of reality."


"​We are all navigating the space between what was and what is emerging. It is messy, it is scary, but rather than viewing our current challenges merely as obstacles to overcome, we will explore them as opportunities for conscious evolution—both personally and collectively.

​Some of what hey will explore:

  • ​Alternatives to polarized either/or thinking

  • ​Working creatively with fear and outrage

  • ​Cultivating the capacity to hold ambiguity, paradox, and cognitive complexity

  • ​Honoring our values while engaging constructively with diverse viewpoints

​This event is for you if you're seeking to:

  • ​Make sense of our cultural moment through a developmental lens

  • ​Find agency and purpose amid uncertainty

  • ​Connect with others committed to conscious participation amidst the chaos and uncertainty

  • ​Develop practical tools for navigating complexity with greater awareness and responsibility"
