In 2013, the first jewelry collection was launched as a collaboration between 36 Afghan artisans trained by Future Brilliance and 3 award-winning international designers.Since then, the line has been sold successfully at stores and online in Asia, EU, Canada, USA, and Mexico, and in 2016 was featured on the front cover of Cosmopolitan Magazine globally, modelled by Brazilian supermodel, Alessandra Ambrosio.In 2015, graduates of Future Brilliance training programs registered the Aayenda Jewelry Co-operative. Royalty payments from sales of Aayenda, have funded the completion of a bead-making workshop in Northern Afghanistan, in which a further 80 Afghan women have been trained, and tools and equipment for Afghan artisans and designers.Since the recent take-over by the Taliban, Future Brilliance focus has been to help get their staff and many other women and girls with their families out of the country to create a new life elsewhere.In 2021, Sophia launched GEDI, her women's global investment fund,  at COP 26 where she spoke on how investing in women's businesses will help alter climate change and create good business practice.Sophia is in demand as a expert and speaker on Social Impact Investment and Social Entrepreneurship.Links Sophia's website Future Brilliance Aayenda Jewelry GEDI Follow @sophia_swire on Instagram If you like what you hear, and want to find out more about our community of like-minded women who believe in living and working in alignment with the feminine values of collaboration, authenticity and most of all, love, you can learn more at https://seednetwork.com and join the community in the SEED Hub Club by visiting https://www.theseedhub.club/You can find Lynne on Instagram at @lynnejfranks, Facebook @lynnefranksobe, Twitter @Lynne_Franks, LinkedIn @Lynne Franks OBE.This episode was produced by Lynne Franks and Tanya Anastasiadis.Production support and graphics by Lotte Micklethwaite.Music by Joolz Barker

They discuss the power of art to heal and work collectively within our communities to envisage a better future.Carrie is known for using craft and art as protest. She has endeavoured to give voices to overlooked communities by creating works of art that truly engage. Art has been her own therapeutic salvation, and so she has committed herself to doing community mosaics at places such as schools, hospitals and communities across the UK.Carrie Reichardt is an outspoken, politically charged and ceramic slinging artist. Leaving a trail of poetry and prose in her wake, Reichardt employs the techniques of a muralist, but the tools of a mosaic artist, screen printing her own tiles to use rather than paint.Reichardt has been involved in community and public art projects for two decades, designing and consulting on large-scale mosaic murals in various local communities. She has produced mosaic murals in Miravalle, one of the most deprived districts on the fringes of Mexico City as well as projects in Argentina and Chile. In 2018, Reichardt finally completed the transformation of her west London home into a giant mosaic mural – a process that took twenty years and tens of thousands of tiles to complete.Links Carrie's website Instagram Twitter If you like what you hear, and want to find out more about our community of like-minded women who believe in living and working in alignment with the feminine values of collaboration, authenticity and most of all, love, you can learn more at https://seednetwork.com and join the community in the SEED Hub Club by visiting https://www.theseedhub.club/You can find Lynne on Instagram at @lynnejfranks, Facebook @lynnefranksobe, Twitter @Lynne_Franks, LinkedIn @Lynne Franks OBE.This episode was produced by Lynne Franks and Tanya Anastasiadis.Production support and graphics by Lotte Micklethwaite.Music by Joolz Barker

    Who am I? Who do I belong to? And what is my purpose? These are the questions that Lynne's guest Sister Maureen Goodman of the Brahma Kumaris discusses as she shares the lessons she has learnt from her years in the BKs, and of living a life of spiritual service where women take the leadership roles.Originating in Hyderabad, Sindh, during the 1930s and founded by Lekhraj Kripalani, he had a vision of the world where people lived in love and in truth. He also believed that women must be brought forward as the spiritual leaders, and handed the leadership of this community to the women. At a time when girls were not given much, if any, education at all, this was a revolutionary act, both progressive and controversial.The message Sister Maureen and the BKs spread is that we are all spiritual beings and our original nature is peace.
