  • Seeds of Radical Renewal Fellowship: An Incubator for Emerging Leadership

    Posted by Lindi Shepard on November 13, 2025 at 4:42 pm

    This fellowship is for creatives, innovators, designers, artists, writers, media makers, scientists, ecologists, technologists, systems thinkers, educators, place-based practitioners, changemakers, and those in emerging or established spaces of leadership interested in working at the intersection of ecology, culture, and spirituality. It is for those seeking radical, embodied, and practical ways to bring the values of spiritual ecology into their work, projects, communities, and organizations.

    This fellowship is primarily intended for those at early or mid stages of their careers and creative paths.

    Fellows will receive a full scholarship for the program, including tuition, single-room accommodation, meals, and travel to the in-person retreat at the Sharpham Trust in the United Kingdom. (Please note: visa costs are not included.)

    Online Program: April 29 – September 23, 2026

    The online portion of the fellowship will include six two-hour sessions focused on the following:

    • An Introduction to the program and spiritual ecology
    • Core teachings of adaptive leadership
    • More than human ways of being and intelligences
    • The power of story to create alchemical spaces of regeneration and renewal

    In-Person Retreat: (UK): June 16–20, 2026
    The five-day in-person retreat held at the Sharpham Trust in the UK will include the following:

    • Lectures, presentations, and facilitated group discussion
    • Embodying adaptive leadership through experiential exercises and case work
    • Spiritual ecology practices, nature immersion, and deep listening exercises
    • Storytelling workshops and exercises
    • Application of fellowship elements to real-world work, projects, and interventions
    • Mentorship sessions with guest teachers

    The online and in-person program will be presented and facilitated by guest teachers James Bridle, Dana Karout, and Emmanuel Vaughan-Lee, with additional facilitation by Emergence Institute staff.

    Post-Retreat Mentorship

    In September we will offer two post-retreat online sessions for small group mentorship and continued support of real-world application of fellowship learnings in their work, projects, and interventions.
