About With Life Wednesdays

As the stewards of the With Life Community, at nRhythm and Capital Institute we are often asked to share what we know about living systems thinking, patterns, and principles, as well as our approach to creating healthier and more resilient organizations. While sharing knowledge is important, we recognize that creating a space to connect, discuss and support each other in bringing this knowledge to life is where thought becomes action. 

Every Wednesday we share an insight with our community that encourages us to pause and explore a new way to re-align #withlife. Each month we offer a new theme, and a collective rhythm, that invites each of us to explore and apply the With Life Approach in our own unique contexts. Our hope is that each week’s prompt seeds a continuity of discussion and supports fresh perspectives in our community that helps us learn and grow together.
