🎙️ Episode Summary A short update on how a project changed shape after taking part in the Energiomstillerne program by cCHANGE. I went in with a plan to build a coalition connected to this podcast. I came out with a different approach. Not a new intention, but a shift in how to move forward. This episode is about: Letting go of the idea of building something from scratch Paying attention to where energy and momentum already exist Returning to a book project I had put aside Exploring the human side of the energy transition I also share reflections on Life After Oil, a UK-based initiative creating space for people transitioning out of oil and gas. 🔗 Links Energiomstillerne (cCHANGE): https://www.cchange.no/pages/energiomstillerne Earlier episode with Dina Hestad from cCHANGE: https://vklavenes.substack.com/p/what-norways-energy-transition-needs-537 Life After Oil: https://lifeafteroil.net/ Website: https://storiesforthefuture.com Substack: https://vklavenes.substack.com 💬 If this resonates, I’d really like to hear from you.
