I’m in Brazil for an @ashoka.org Junction exploring Lifelong Environmental Agency. It’s been inspiring connecting with changemakers from around the world - dancing, singing, learning, and co-creating around healthy ageing and planetary wellbeing. 💚

Had an incredible time at the #MakingMoreHealth Conference in Ingelheim sharing the power of imagination to drive ideas to impact. We visualised a better healthcare future - and pledged one action to make it real. What we visualise, we act on. #HealthEquity #innovation @ashoka.org

Discovered Pirmas blynas in Vilnius – Lithuania’s top social enterprise. Amazing food in a stunning Baroque church, with every meal supporting jobs & skills. A true holiday highlight! Congrats to Tim van Wijk & team 👏

Just spent a couple of days in Kaunas -one of the prettiest, cleanest cities in Europe. A perfect blend of old + new! Highlights: the castle, long boulevard walks & amazing food. Off to Vilnius tomorrow, only an hour by train 🇱🇹✨

Wind tearing through the trees on our walk tonight. Rex loved it. So did I. There’s something about wild weather that makes you feel deeply alive.

Weekend pace: Started with a chocolate-dusted cappuccino, picked up some sunflowers to brighten my home, & blended a little sunshine - orange, grapefruit, mint + ice. Simple pleasures.

Sometimes the small things do the heavy lifting.

Ever had a bold idea fade as systems snap back to ‘business as usual’?

In my final blog for the @livuniheseltine.bsky.social, I share the Imagination-to-Action Framework (IAF) - a tool I developed to turn vision into action.

Took the boat across the Ionian Sea to Corfu - just 50 minutes, with incredible views the whole way. The island’s full of winding lanes, pastel shutters, and sea glimpses at every turn. Calm, beautiful, and easy to love. 🇬🇷

Arrived in Serandë on the Albanian Riviera. Beautiful setting and a lively start - dancing on a pirate ship last night. 🏴‍☠️ Planning visits to the Blue Eye and Butrint National Park over the next few days. Plenty to see and take in. 🇦🇱

Arrived in Vlorë by bus after a stunning ride along the coast - the gateway to the Albanian Riviera doesn’t disappoint. Slowing things right down here: fresh seafood, sea air, and a bit of quiet people-watching.

A perfect pause from the always - on world.

Next stop: Sarandë. 🇦🇱

Exploring Albania this week - starting in Tirana, a city full of energy & contrast. A ride up Mount Dajti by cable car offered sweeping views over the capital & beyond. Next stop: the coast, heading south via Vlore & the Albanian Riviera to Sarandë. A stunning part of the world.

I’ve written for Alliance magazine on how social investment in community-led approaches can promote health equity and prevent ill health.

We need to invest in what matters: people, communities, and prevention.

Imagination isn’t a luxury - it’s a lifeline.
At @wecic.bsky.social we harness 4 types:
🔁 Reproductive (memory)
💡 Creative (new ideas)
👁️ Perceptive (how we see)
🌍 Cultural (shared beliefs)
It’s how we co-create better futures.
