Imagination Encircled our Masterclass
Michelle Sherman • July 17, 2026
Imagination is more important than knowledge
Albert Einstein once said;
"Imagination is more important than knowledge.
Knowledge is limited. Imagination encircles the world."
From the Illuminating Humankindness vantage point, that quote invites us to embrace our edgiest positive imagination to reveal a paradigm that naturally inspires our best efforts and outcomes. I certainly would enjoy more of that!
Well, that is exactly what a bold and brilliant group of sparkly souls did on July 12 at the How to Create a Paradigm Shift Masterclass.
Together, we explored the four steps required to navigate an upward trend in humanity's focus at this time of great confusion and discomfort. Our Masterclass, guided by Michelle Purnell-Hepburn, Paula Intravaia, Briana Blythe, and me, was welcomed with a level of relief, joy, and enthusiasm that sweetened the day and our post-program picnic.

I want to acknowledge our brave and bodacious team of Thought Leaders, Luminary Guides, Volunteers, Tech Wizards, Leadership Mentees, Donors, and Subscribers who made this event possible.
They each know that Illuminating Humankindness is a courageous way of life that positively impacts all who practice it, witness it, or benefit from it.
