Field Investing did not arrive alone. It emerged in conversation with a small constellation of thinkers, practitioners, and communities. Each of the entries below opened a door.
Eco-philosopher, Buddhist scholar, root teacher of The Work That Reconnects
Joanna gave language to the moment we are living through. Three Stories run alongside one another: Business as Usual, the Great Unraveling, and the Great Turning. We choose, daily, which one we are inside.
Indigenous scientist, member of the Citizen Potawatomi Nation, author of Braiding Sweetgrass and The Serviceberry
Robin teaches that the natural world runs on reciprocity, not extraction. The serviceberry distributes its abundance to the birds, and the birds carry its seed into the forest. Wealth, she shows, comes from the quality of relationships, not from the illusion of self-sufficiency.
Writer and teacher, author of Sacred Economics and The More Beautiful World Our Hearts Know Is Possible
Charles traces the history of money from ancient gift cultures to modern capitalism, and offers a vision of an economy organised around interbeing rather than separation. The story we tell about money is the story we tell about each other.
Founder, Capital Institute, architect of Regenerative Economics
John is the architect of Regenerative Economics. His work asks what an economy would look like if it were designed the way living systems are, and offers eight principles of vitality drawn from how the cosmos actually builds stable, healthy, self-organising wholes.
Founder, The Seva Institute
Ernesto is structuring auditable nature-finance vehicles from regenerative land in Brazil and Latin America, bridging institutional capital to biodiversity assets. His work asks what it would mean to design assets backed not by belief or extraction, but by photosynthesis, succession, and reciprocity.
Founder, Pando Funding, New Capitalism Project
Anna asks what it would take to fund like Pando, the vast aspen grove whose root system is a single organism. Pando Funding pools capital across system change networks rather than isolated projects, and shifts decision-making toward those closest to the work.
Initiator of The Explorers Club, co-founder, We Are Impact Collective
Astrid builds systemic, perspective-driven portfolio approaches for investors and philanthropists who want to learn through doing. The Explorers Club is a year-long journey of collective learning where capital, intuition, and curiosity travel together.
