Abstract
From the privilege of retirement, and with time for deep reflection, the transformative moments in my life’s journey, and the connections between them, have been periodically coming into my consciousness, and a story of experiments in transformative learning has been emerging. In this chapter I will share the parts of this story I hope can be most easily used by others to further clarify their stories and help them to engage in meaningful and effective actions that can be taken, individually and collectively, to help heal and enable our world to realise its potential to nurture wellbeing for all. I will also discuss the most valuable enablers and supports that have made these transformational moments possible. Drawing on these experiences, I will finally share the essence of my understandings and hopes for the future. All of this will be illustrated with examples of my transformative initiatives, and supported by the frameworks I constructed to make sense of my experiences.
