Exploring the Power of Rituals

Rituals shape our lives in profound ways—they can add meaning, provide structure, and even serve as a lifeline during times of change. In a recent conversation with Anlam Tasarimcisi host Elvin, I had the opportunity to dive into the art and impact of ritual design, sharing insights from my work at Stanford d.school, Ritual Design Lab, and my book Rituals for Work.

We explored key questions:

  • What makes rituals so compelling, and why do they resonate across cultures and contexts?
  • How can rituals help us navigate transitions and moments of change?
  • In what ways can they shape relationships and bring more intentionality to daily life?
  • Can rituals be deliberately designed, or do the most powerful ones emerge organically?
  • And as AI becomes more integrated into our world, what role might rituals play in our relationship with technology?

Ritual design is a fascinating intersection of psychology, design, and culture—one that continues to evolve. I’m always excited to explore how we can craft meaningful experiences that connect people, shape behaviors, and create a sense of belonging.
