How We Future: Stories of Hope, Hype, and Gratitude

There is no "they" who should determine our future. We are the "they."

Futurist, author, and educator Lisa Kay Solomon believes in doing hard things, optimistically. Each week, Lisa and her remarkable guests illuminate the skills and practices we all need to develop hope, hype, and gratitude: traits that are crucial to build towards a more positive future.

As Futurist in Residence at the Stanford d.school, where she teaches courses like "View from the Future" and "Futures Thinking for Strategic Decision Making," Lisa has spent her career making the tools of futures thinking accessible to everyone from K-12 educators to global executives. Now, through How We Future, she's bringing that same approach to you.

You'll hear from architects rethinking how we build, educators transforming how we learn, artists expanding what we create, coaches revealing what it takes to lead, and futurists mapping what's coming.

So far, How We Future has covered how to incorporate play into serious work, how wisdom and aging can be competitive advantages, and how creative risk-taking builds resilience. Other guests have included Dana Cowin, former Editor-in-Chief of Food & Wine, ten-time NCAA champion coach John Tanner, and Ahmed Best, who plays Jar Jar Binks in Star Wars.

Whether you're a student, a leader, an educator, or simply someone who wants to shape tomorrow rather than just react to it, you'll leave each episode with new questions, fresh perspectives, and a renewed sense that the future is something you get to participate in creating.

  • Mindshifting Strategies to Stay Open with Digital Anthropologist Brian Solis
    2026/07/21

    How do you stay optimistic in a world that feels increasingly uncertain?

    In this episode of How We Future, Lisa Kay Solomon sits down with futurist, bestselling author, and digital anthropologist Brian Solis to explore why the future will reward people who are willing to slow down, stay curious, and rethink what they know.

    Drawing from his latest book, Mindshift, Brian shares why innovation begins with self-awareness, how to break free from reactive thinking, and why it’s crucial to develop an open mind. Together, they discuss the power of storytelling, the importance of psychological safety, and how leaders should use AI to imagine new possibilities, instead of just increasing productivity.

    In this conversation, we cover:

    • Brian's Mindshift framework for navigating uncertainty and leading through change.
    • What companies like Pixar and Airbnb can teach us about innovation through storytelling.
    • How curiosity, wonder, and optimism can become leadership practices.

    2026/07/14

    Where are you on your growth curve?

    In this episode of How We Future, Lisa Kay Solomon talks with bestselling author and disruption expert Whitney Johnson about when and how to change your path, stick with something new, or challenge yourself.

    Drawing on Clayton Christensen's theory of disruption, Whitney shares how embracing change can unlock personal growth and new opportunities.

    Together, Lisa and Whitney explore the S Curve of Learning, why feeling like an imposter is often a sign you're growing, the power of reaching out to people who inspire you, and the relationship between stability and disruption.

    In this conversation, we cover:

    • Why personal disruption is the key to continued growth.
    • Why learning often feels uncomfortable before it feels rewarding
    • How understanding the "S Curve" can help us recognize where we are in our own development
    • A preview of Whitney’s upcoming book, Steady

    Along the way, they share stories about taking risks, reaching out to mentors, and why one well-crafted email can change the course of your career.

    Whether you're starting something new, considering your next career move, or simply feeling ready for another season of growth, this conversation offers practical frameworks—and plenty of encouragement—for embracing what's next.

  • Lead with Loving Kindness and Build Community with Rabbi Shira Stutman
    2026/07/07

    What does it look like to prioritize loving kindness, support for others’ success, and rest with intention?

    In this episode of How We Future, Lisa is talking with Rabbi Shira Stutman, a nationally recognized rabbi, author of The Jewish Way to a Good Life and host of the podcast Chutzpod!

    Shira is the full-time rabbi of Aspen Jewish Congregation and the former Founding Rabbi of Sixth & I Historic Synagogue, a groundbreaking spiritual and cultural center in Washington, DC.

    In this episode, Lisa and Shira discuss:

    • Chesed (loving-kindness) as a crucial practice in this time
    • Why allowing yourself to receive care can be harder than giving it
    • What community really looks like, and where you can learn to build it
    • How rest is a human right

    Lisa learns about "schepping nachas," which is experiencing true joy from someone else’s success. If you’re curious how ancient wisdom can be radically practical and how small moments of connection can create huge ripple effects, this episode is for you.
