Hey! It’s Saturday. I’m sitting here in the playroom connecting with my purpose of creation. I’ve been sending these short, mostly-daily emails for nearly a month. Since March 10th, I’ve sent 17 email broadcasts to about 65 people. I celebrate that I’ve had people in-person and digitally tell me they’ve been reading and appreciating my newsletter. Two fathers, in the span of 2 hours, told me that what I wrote was synchronistically aligned with what they were going through and helped them navigate their situation. My intention is simple: Growing and feeding my circle. Nurture the soil, plant seeds and water them. Sharing my discoveries, resources, questions and making invitations. This is it. This is where I share my gold and what I'm up to. While making a video this week, I had a weird realization. I’m not exactly giving what I’d like to receive. My invitation in the video is to give what you want to receive. To take the first step in the cycle of giving and receiving. So, I’m walking with these questions: What do I want to receive? What is the shift needed from the usual to something new? What regenerational wheel of giving and receiving do you want to start? These questions act as vacuums to inhabit new spaces. To a life of more alignment. To better and more powerful use of your resources. To more authenticity and winning-happening for you and those you serve. I want to receive more Love and Appreciation in all forms. It takes vulnerability to say what you want to receive. So often, we’re so clear about what we want to give. But ignorant about what we want to receive. I appreciate all of you who read this and are on the path to creating new ways of being. I appreciate my partner Melissa for being on this journey of love, life and parenting with me. I appreciate my children for the chaos they bring and for being a constant invitation to play more. I appreciate all of you on my team supporting and empowering me to keep showing up and playing. Ok, that's all for today. I’m off to cereal & cartoons Saturday with my kids. My invitation for you is to go and find out what it is you want to receive. Try it out. Be vulnerable with yourself. Experiment. Say it out loud. Get the wheel moving. Have a great weekend! Love, P.S.: Are you a gameworld builder? A village builder? A family builder? Our project empowerment team is running and the legends are rolling. Last week we supported a dad to install garden boxes for his garden. |

I'm lying down in bed writing. Listening to the geese outside. Navigating this line between being with what is, and Going to the deep end, transformation, reality, urgency, possibility. I feel scared that I am nothing without my low drama. That's likely because I'm centered but haven't connected with my conscious purpose. So, here we go... 3, 2, 1... Connecting with: Nourishment, Authenticity, Empowerment, Clarity, and Love. Go! Fear. There's Conscious Fear and Unconscious Fear. To make your...
Hey! It’s Tuesday morning, a brand new day to start over and build momentum! The Worth Talk worktalk was yesterday. It went great! How you assign value deeply depends on the culture you inhabit. Inhabiting a culture is a skill. This skill can be used consciously or unconsciously. Even better, this skill can be learned and practiced. Want to watch the recording?

When it comes to your life's path, what else is possible beyond the menu offered by modern culture? Have you ever thought and felt something like this: "I don’t know exactly what it is, but something’s missing…"? This was me in 2014 at the end of my career as a Software Engineer. I had an immense longing to be outside, in nature, playing and learning. A whole new field had just opened up for me —Interactions with other beings other than humans. I wanted to immerse myself in self-discovery,...
