The Groundswell Way – Details, episodes & analysis

The Groundswell Way is a podcast about building community power through community development for wholistic resilience. Hosted by Matthew Wesley Williams, Senior Vice President of Community Development at Groundswell, this series dives into what resilience means, and what it really takes to build the everyday conditions that are built under blue skies and proven in storms. Each episode explores the principles and practices that define The Groundswell Way, how we walk alongside communities to co-create sustainable systems rooted in shared values, belonging, and participation. Through real stories from places like Baltimore, Atlanta, and the rural South, we highlight how neighbors are shaping their own futures and cutting bills in half in the process. This isn’t just about weathering the next crisis. It’s about building lasting connections and local infrastructure that serve communities every day.
