As a leader, championing change can be challenging, might you be stuck at the possibility of getting it wrong?

A while back, 20 Trailblazers came together from all over the world, for an experience of deep connection and community. Most of the people didn’t know each other. And even fewer had any real idea about what would be taking place during the time together. All they knew was that I was inviting some of the “most interesting, intimidating, and inspiring people I know to create a deep and intimate community experience where you’ll leave energized, aligned, and connected to yourself, others, and your higher purpose”. Watch the replay for how the conversation took place: + What was done to create space and safety in advance? + What struck you or surprised you the most about this experience? + What is one thing this brings to mind that you’d like to bring into your leadership? 6 Questions we explored: 1) What are you proud about regarding the way you’ve shown up in the last 2 weeks 2) What are you confident about in the current space 3) What are the crossroads that you find yourself at right now? 4) What’s your HIDDEN superpower 5) What does the world need most right now? 6) What do *I* need most right now?

Do you feel like you have been dealing with different variations of the same issues? Don’t you think that if you are going to be problem solving oriented, that your problems had better be worth solving?

When faced with a challenge, are you running towards possibility creating as opposed to running away from problems?

I am an angry black man.

This is the guilty secret that I’m been afraid people will find out.

This is the secret that I’ve been afraid of ejecting me from being an accepted Outlier to a rejected Outcast.

This is the secret that I have to make public now, so that I can be free of the burden and energetic drain it takes to hide it from others.

For what’s coming next, I need to allow myself to step into that which has been uncomfortable and frankly unsafe for me in the past.
