What happens when collaboration becomes the bridge between difference and transformation?
In this episode of Shifting to Ethical Systems, host Jules Harrison-Annear explores how collaboration across sectors, organizations, and ecosystems can shift entire systems toward inclusion, regeneration, and ethics.
Through real stories from pandemic response teams to community-police partnerships, Jules shares how embracing difference creates scale without compromise and resilience without competition. Collaboration, she reminds us, is not about uniformity but about holding space for diverse strengths, shared risk, and imagination.
When we stay in the room together through discomfort and discovery, friction becomes flow and systems begin to transform.
Key quote:“Collaboration isn’t about making everyone the same. It’s about recognizing that our differences are the strength. That’s when the system starts to shift because we do.”

What happens when money becomes a tool for stewardship, not extraction?
In this episode of Shifting to Ethical Systems, host Esteban Fernandez Drovetta explores how impact investing is reshaping finance through models like steward ownership and profit sharing.
Drawing from JERICA Global’s collaboration with the Mataqali project, a regional Fijian tribe, Esteban shares how aligning capital with values of inclusion, regeneration, and ethics transforms traditional investment into partnership.
Through real-world examples, the episode reveals how redistributing profit and decision-making power can restore ecosystems, empower communities, and create more resilient returns for everyone involved.
Key quote:“When profit becomes participation, power balances begin to change. Impact investing isn’t about giving things up. It’s about redefining what return really means.”

What happens when leadership shifts from holding power to sharing it?
In this episode of Shifting to Ethical Systems, host Jules Harrison-Annear discusses the importance of viewing leadership as a contribution rather than from a position of control.
Through personal reflections and examples, she emphasizes how this mindset fosters collaboration, builds trust, and creates a lasting impact within organizations and communities.
The conversation highlights the transformative power of small acts of contribution and the ripple effect they can have on systems and relationships.
Key quote:“You do not need head of or manager in your job title to lead. You don’t even need a job. You lead every time you choose values over convenience, every time you create space for someone else’s voice.”

Systems don’t shift overnight. They shift when people choose to lead, invest, and design differently.
Welcome to Shifting to Ethical Systems, a podcast by JERICA Global. Hosted by co-CEOs Jules Harrison-Annear and Esteban Fernandez Drovetta, this series invites leaders, businesses, and investors to explore what it takes to move from extractive systems to ones that are ethical, inclusive, and regenerative.
These aren’t theories from the sidelines. They’re reflections from inside the work. The mistakes, the lessons, and the daily practices that help us hold the tension between what is and what could be.
Each episode explores one of five key themes that guide the JERICA Global approach:
Ethical Leadership: Leading with courage and conscience in every decision.
Ethical Sponsorship: Sharing power to uplift others and sustain change.
Ethical Investment: Directing capital toward regeneration, not extraction.
Ethical Models: Redesigning systems to serve people and planet.
Ethical Projects: Turning principles into action across sectors and communities.
