Why I Don’t Teach Design Thinking Anymore

Sarah Pirie-Nally

Published on: 30/05/2025

In this paradigm-shifting piece, Sarah Pirie-Nally shares why she stepped away from traditional design thinking frameworks — not because they were wrong, but because they were too small for the scale of human transformation she now facilitates. Through the metaphor of galaxies instead of ecosystems, Sarah introduces a new model of designing for complexity, mystery, and multidirectional evolution. From retreats as gravitational centers to books as stardust, she invites readers to rethink how they build, lead, parent, and create — not with linear tools, but with cosmic coherence. Perfect for leaders, creators, and conscious change-makers ready to shift from systems management to soul expansion.
