What does it mean to be engaged in a world that feels like it’s breaking?

In this preview of Season 4 of Tension of Emergence, Jennifer England shares the heart of the new season’s inquiry—a living koan that has been shaping her own writing and leadership: how do we act with love and integrity in a time of rupture and collapse, without rushing to fix or save a world that may not need our saving?

With a magical cadre of guests, Jennifer explores tensions we’re told to resolve—between urgency and spaciousness, grief and creativity, doing and being. With the backdrop of global upheaval, she asks:

• Is “breaking” the whole story? If not, what else is happening?
• How do we stay in relationship, when our hearts are breaking?
• What do we do when we can’t agree on the path forward?

Tune in to discover what it means to live at the edge of uncertainty—curiously, generously, and awake. Season 4 offers a sanctuary of emergence- and place to be honest in the mess of it all.

Come follow along for deep dives, and micro-practice episodes, to nourish this season of collective stretch.
