Episode #12 – Kosha Joubert on Global Social Witnessing as a Portal to Collective Healing
August 12, 2025
Kosha Joubert, chief executive of the Pocket Project, sees Global Social Witnessing as one of the most potent tools for helping people to access a greater sense of presence, sensitivity and agency in relation to the many crises on our news feeds.
In this episode, Kosha, one of the co-hosts of the What is Collective Healingis podcast, describes how her own relationship to the practice has evolved since her first remarkable experience with Global Social Witnessing a decade ago, in a workshop run by Thomas Hübl.
With the Pocket Project launching Phase Two of its Global Social Witnessing facilitator training on September 3, 2025, Kosha explains how this work is helping to birth a new way of being in the world – where we experience our innate inter-dependence in a more intimate, tangible way.
Global Social Witnessing can also help prepare the ground for working with layers of collective and inter-generational trauma, Kosha explains, by helping people to slow down and recognise “the one sacred thing” that they feel called to do next.
“And the beautiful thing is that as we meet the world more deeply out there, we also meet the world more deeply in ourselves. More intimacy arises within and without,” Kosha says. “And that to me is a miracle.”
