Lynn Zebeda has worked alongside changemakers across five continents, reimagining the future of society. As co-founder of Catalytic and formerly Dr. Monk, Lynn brings experience as an international public speaker, community curator, and board member of numerous social change organizations.

In this interactive keynote, Lynn will introduce a simple but powerful shift that the future is calling for – one that invites us to rethink how we relate to each other and the world. But this won’t be a typical talk. Together, we will move, play, and engage to explore the transformation we seek.

Because how might we evolve toward a world where we co-evolve with nature, where mutualism flourishes, and solidarity becomes second nature? Let’s start here, with us.

Gain practical tips on how to surf the waters of change with more ease and explore the three common personal and professional transitions as described by William Bridges:

Endings: Every transition begins with one. Yet how we recognize them is key to how we can begin anew.

The Neutral Zone: A seemingly unproductive time-out when we feel disconnected from the past and unconnected to the present. How can we make the most of it?

The New Beginning: To make a successful new beginning requires more than simply persevering. It requires an understanding of external and internal signs and inner signals that point the way to the future.

Having turned her career upside down in her late 20s, navigating four international moves, switching between being a full-time employee, a full-time mom, a part-time entrepreneur and a contractor, Manuela Damant has at times more and at others less successfully managed her own transitions in the past. She’ll share some of her own pitfalls so you don’t need to make the same mistakes. And she’ll also share the wonderful opportunities in new beginnings.
