Soutenir Zen Benefiel

🌟 About Me

For several years, I’ve been a one-man show—producing, hosting, editing, scheduling, and building One World in a New World from the ground up. The growing community of 28k+ subscribers and nearly 2 million views has proven that these long-form, heartfelt conversations truly matter.

So many people navigating awakening, inner experiences, or deep personal questions have no one to talk to, no safe place to explore what’s happening within them. This fundraiser helps me continue offering high-quality, meaningful content for those seeking clarity, confirmation, insight, and a sense of connection on their own journeys.

I’m Zen Benefiel—founder of Planetary Citizens and host of One World in a New World. For more than four decades, my work has explored how consciousness, leadership, and coherent action can help humanity grow into a more compassionate, connected, and purpose-driven future.

My path has been anything but conventional. I’ve served as a transformational coach, author, educator, facilitator, and producer—working across aerospace, education, organizational development, event production, public policy, and nonprofit leadership. I hold an MBA and a Master’s in Organizational Management, and much of my professional life has been devoted to helping people and teams move from confusion to clarity, from conflict to collaboration, and from uncertainty to meaningful action.

As a facilitator, I’ve led construction partnering sessions, organizational trainings, and leadership interventions designed to build trust and coherence. As a creator, I’ve authored over 40 books on consciousness, personal development, and planetary stewardship. As a communicator, I’ve produced hundreds of conversations with pioneers, researchers, visionaries, and thought leaders from around the world—building a living archive of wisdom through One World in a New World, now approaching two million views.

My “why” is simple:

To awaken the heart of humanity by bringing people, ideas, and wisdom together in ways that inspire clarity, courage, and meaningful change. I believe that when individuals learn to align their inner world with their outer actions, they become catalysts for harmony—personally, collectively, and planetarily.

If my work has sparked insight, grounded you, or supported your journey, your contribution helps me continue creating conversations, tools, models, and pathways that serve a more coherent and compassionate world.

Thank you for being here—and for being part of this evolution.
