Upwilling

When all seems too uncertain, too demanding and too
imperfect, upwilling is the inner strength to remain open, curious and
available. In this book, Iva Biondic combines mind, body and meaning
through five forms of intelligence, emotional, cultural, positive,
conversational and collaborative. Together, they create the conditions for
willingness to emerge, where there is space for disagreement without rupture,
learning without humiliation, engagement without exhaustion and collaboration
with AI without fear or domination.

Drawing on her work across leadership, neuroscience and holistic practice, Iva
shows how individuals and leaders can restore and protect this inner
availability, so they can remain present and responsive without feeling trapped
by past regret or driven by future anxiety. This is not a book about being
better, faster or more positive. It is about
staying human, available, and in relationship with yourself
and others.
