"What the wellbeing economy model really provides is a sense that we can rethink how we do things here. And it really starts with that question, asking our community: What does a good life really mean to you?" 💭🧡 Thobile Chittenden, co-lead of the Wellbeing Economy Alliance - WEAll , helped us reflect during the Global Hearth Summit on how new ways of thinking about economics can help us nurture our wellbeing. So tell us in the comments: what does a good life really mean to you? 👇 💙

Social entrepreneurs need more support to flourish and thrive — so let's talk about it, says Nektarios Liolios, speaking from experience about his own journey of self-care as an entrepreneur. He joined us at the Global Hearth Summit where 1,000 members of our community gathered around this message of hope: changemakers, social entrepreneurs, and those making the world a better place — your wellbeing matters, and you are not alone. 🩵 Send this ➡️ to a changemaker who needs to hear it, and follow for more inspiration about caring for yourself while you care for the world. 💚🌎

In times of division, polarization, and inequality — can imagination really lead the way forward? 💭✨ Cardinal Timothy Radcliffe OP, known worldwide for his compassionate leadership, explains how allowing yourself to imagine — to see worlds beyond your own — can be the key skill we need to overcome today's greatest challenges. For the Cardinal, listening and dreaming are as much a leadership skill as they are a wellbeing practice. What do you dream of?

Something quietly powerful happened in the final months of 2025. In Kuwait, people rediscovered healing inside their own heritage — through family circles, music, and the kind of conversations that don't end when the summit does. In Dallas, artists and changemakers reminded us that imagination isn't a luxury. It's a requirement for building something better. In Bangalore, we were reminded that burnout isn't a personal failure — it's a signal. And that no changemaker is ever truly alone. Before we announce where the Hearth is traveling next (very soon!), we wanted to pause and honor what these gatherings gave us — and the communities that made them what they were. Where do you hope the Hearth travels next?

How often do you take care of what’s going on inside so your work can last? Too many changemakers treat intimacy, healing, and emotional wellbeing as “extras.” The cost? Strained relationships, burnout, and work that starts to feel heavy. At #HearthSummit2025, @Louisa_Zondo and @kuminaidoo reminded us that caring for your inner life isn’t indulgent. It’s essential. 🔗 Watch their plenary below: youtube.com/watch?v=u8vhU5jt…
