Let's begin imagining your 20...
Imagine 20 people you love to work with – they enjoy your style and skills just as you are now, without you needing to change or improve anything – and you enjoy them as well. Part of this work – as all work of "authentic business" – is to practice believing in the value of your skills and presence, and stepping more into your authentic service-oriented power. Those 20 people probably already in your life/network right now. Draw them forth by writing a heartfelt description of them... You're welcome to comment below as you tell us about them – anything you can tell us is great, their inner characteristics, outer (visible) demographics, their interests, and most importantly – why they like and trust you. And what they believe that you can support them with. No perfection needed here... just write what comes to you. You can always update it later – and likely will :) After writing your comment, turn around and comment on 2 others' descriptions, especially if you resonate or know someone who is exactly like that! :) Just because you reply to someone's comment doesn't mean that you'll get a spot as part of their 20 ;-) but later in this course, if there's still space, and it seems aligned for the time being, they might reach out to you with a gentle invitation to play :-)
My 20 people:
- Laugh at my jokes
- Appreciate that I show up as I am, in whatever form, could be a hot mess, could be comedy hour, could be serious zone, could be dealing with my own life sh!t -- I don't hide things.
- Love that I am *real* and not showing up as an ‘all-knowing-pseudo-guru’
- Are spiritually inclined vs. religious
- Already believe in a higher power of some kind and don’t need convincing
- People who aren’t afraid to break free of the paradigms and systems we’ve been under the spell of (patriarch, colonization etc)
- They trust me because I’ve been in the trench before, they know I’m coming from experience and not a text book.
- They love to explore the inner workings of their soul-space
- They can laugh at themselves
- They are well versed on self accountability (even if they still need support and guidance like we all do from time to time) but they are beyond the ‘woe-is-me’ mentality.
- They like that I am powerful, opinionated and strong, because it helps them feel safe, at ease and know that I don’t pull any punches, but hold them in the most tender and compassionate way
- They know my work, or have at least spent a significant amount of time paying attention to what I put out in the world
- Or… someone has introduced them to my work and is a keen and reliable reference even if they are brand new to my work, they’ve been doing their own healing and work elsewhere for quite some time
- Are okay with being not okay – because they trust and know that the dark times always eventually lead us to healing and harmony
Thank you@Jason Blydell
Wow@Heather Tobin what a great profile of your peeps! I really appreciate how important authenticity is to you... oh and laughter/joy! 🙏
Love the part about "don't need convincing". I think so often we are are focused on the direction people want to go in next, we forget to celebrate where they have already arrived.
