ABC Values 💛

Members often say that the biggest benefit is the community we form. 

What makes it such a good experience are the values that we share 🤗

Through our individual actions, we each shape the values of this group. 

Think of yourself as one of the culture-setters of this community ✨


Be the peer that you'd love others to be for you :)


For starters, try these on:


Own your pace

We are each at different stages of the journey (in fact, different journeys!) 

Be careful not to compare your stage or speed of growth with anyone else... 

Move at your own pace, and encourage everyone, whatever pace they’re on. 

I’ll do my best to keep up with you, and support you through any stage you’re in.


Guilt-free

There are no exams, requirements or right answers here. 

You can never “fall behind” because everyone moves at their own pace, and chooses how to participate at their own rhythm. If you’ve been absent from calls or the group for awhile, you are welcome to jump in again anytime! No worries at all.


Notice & name strengths

We often forget our own strengths because it’s too obvious to us. When a peer acknowledges your strengths, it is empowering. It helps you activate that strength even more… so do that for your fellow members!

As you get to know each one, notice the strengths they have, and let them know you see it.

We encourage you to make an Appreciation post to acknowledge someone specifically. Do it as often as you’d like! (OK, up to one a week is good ;-)

Understanding one another's strengths will also create better collaborations.


Learn from diversity

We have a diversity of beliefs, stages, and way of working. Be curious of others’ worldviews and modalities. You might just learn something! 

You’ll learn from those who are farther along, and re-learn the essentials from those who are just starting out.


Constructive & kind feedback

How will we grow, unless we are open to receiving suggestions?

Be one of the caring ones, willing to share honest feedback, with kindness.

If you're not sure whether the feedback might feel embarrassing, please ask them privately if they are open to feedback, letting them know that you care.


Authentic Business

This sets us apart from other business groups.

We are here to use authentic strategies, led by the heart, with honesty and generosity toward our audiences.

Let's help each other stay true, with kindness and grace.


Practicing Together

We are committing to a year of practice together… 

  • Practicing joyful productivity as we grow our own business.

  • Practicing being in supportive community, with good boundaries for self-care.

  • Practicing being open-minded, open-hearted, as we learn from one another.



Which of these values do you resonate with the most?

(And if there are other values you might recommend for our community to consider, feel free to add that too.)
