Episode Synopsis

Send us a textWhat if money flowed through landscapes like water - nurturing life and creating abundance - instead of extracting value and leaving depletion behind? Samantha Power, regenerative economist and co-founder of the BioFi Project, reveals how "bioregional financing facilities" keep capital rooted in places like nutrients in healthy soil. From community-governed trusts to venture studios supporting Indigenous entrepreneurs, her four innovative models challenge the assumption that finance must operate in opposition to nature. Already transforming economic relationships from California to the Amazon, these approaches build local capital aligned with living systems rather than extracting wealth from them. Join this paradigm-shifting conversation to discover not just how to increase investment in nature, but how to fundamentally reimagine our relationship with capital to serve life itself.Links:Samantha Power's book: "Bioregional Financing Facilities: Reimagining Finance to Regenerate Our Planet"The BioFi ProjectFinance for GaiaCommonlandPlanet Drum FoundationCapital InstituteFritjof Capra's work on living systems principles
