The Invisible Threads Impact Lab

Theory of Change

  • Awareness

    We reveal the hidden patterns —personal, relational, and systemic, as well as historical — that keep us stuck, so people can finally see what needs to heal.

  • Agency

    We teach practical, nervous-system-based skills from the Resilience Toolkit that help people shift from reactivity to choice, restoring their capacity to lead, connect, and repair without burning out, lashing out, or shutting down.

  • Action

    We turn insight into impact, equipping leaders, communities, and institutions to transform harmful patterns into practices that nourish long-term wellbeing.

How we make an impact

  • Practical, body-based skills that help people calm their nervous system, interrupt stress cycles, and stay grounded under pressure.

  • A systems-change roadmap developed by Georgetown’s Red House research and design unit with global trauma experts convened by The Wellbeing Project that reveals how harm moves through people and institutions — and how to transform it into healing.

  • A narrative practice that restores the social soil by illuminating root causes of harm to the health of our minds and body politic, and offering tools that strengthen collective wellbeing.
