The Regenerative Real Estate Podcast
A show that explores how land, capital, and community come together in practice.
Hosted by Neal Collins, the show features conversations with landowners, developers, investors, and practitioners navigating the real-world challenges of regenerative development, including financing, governance, land stewardship, and long-term value creation.
Rather than focusing on theory or trends, the podcast examines the tradeoffs, constraints, and decisions that determine whether regenerative projects actually endure.

Jasper van Brakel is on a mission to regenerate the world with the power of finance and business
As CEO of RSF Social Finance, he leads one of the most innovative financial institutions redefining how capital can serve life—not just profit.
In this episode, Jasper shares how his journey through the early days of finance and impact investing led him to the frontlines of the regenerative finance movement. He unpacks RSF’s bold embrace of the term “regenerative,” and the framework they’ve built to evaluate whether a business is truly healing people, planet, and place—by its very existence.
We dive into:
- Why the type of capital matters as much as the investment itself
- How RSF is using fixed income and Donor Advised Funds to unlock high-impact opportunities
- What medium-return, deeply regenerative investing really looks like in action
If you’ve ever asked, “How can my money do more good?”—this conversation is for you.
