What do you want to exist in the world?
|
Hey! The Growness worktalk yesterday touched on something so foundational for me. Watch the recording here. Lots of great questions came up in the space. Two things came up for me. 1) Mainstream Culture = Consumer Culture = NOT Regenerative 2) What you want to exist in the world is the source of your Growness Consumer Culture is a adolescent, vampiristic, blood-sucking orientation. There are only two industries that call their clients "USERS":
These industries are very clear about their purpose. To create addicts. To make the users addicted to their product. More human attention = More money profit. Look at Facebook, YouTube, Instagram, TikTok, etc. Their main goal is to hook their users to their product for as long and passionately as they can. If you're not clear about what culture you're inhabiting, you're likely inhabiting mainstream consumer culture. Growness is not about serving a consumer, or consuming and being consumed. Growness is about creating creators. The first step to creating a Growness is... Getting really clear about what you want to exist in the world. The second step is: Finding your team. The shift from Business (money-oriented) to Growness (regeneration) is massive. And, it takes conscious effort, inner-work, emotional healing processes and teamwork to make this shift. So, what do you want to exist in the world? Let's go! Love, P.S.: I'm putting together a support and empowerment team. We're having a call this Thursday 6 to 8pm PDT (Pacific Time) to discover what you want to exist in the world. If you want to join, reply to this email. Let me know where you're at and what you want. P.S.2: What's next? What's stopping you from taking the next steps in building your team, your Growness, or your Village? I'll hold space and go step-by-step for you to discover your own power to remove energetic blockages. P.S.3: What are you building? Let me know what you're building, send me your website, your newsletter registration, what are the edges you're facing, what would you like support with. Take care and see you tomorrow! |

Hey, my weekly support and empowerment team is starting next week. We focus each week on one team member's projects. Reply "teamwork" to this email, and I'll send you the details. Ok, let's be blunt. Humans have feelings and emotions. You can stop hiding now. Humans are way more irrational and unreasonable than we like to think. → The way that we buy stuff... → The way we choose our partners... → The way we make friends... → And just generally the way we make decisions... These are all...
You are carrying seeds of regenerative culture… You are building cool stuff… You are either in the design phase… Or you are actively experimenting with your design… You want to collaborate with others… A support team to help you build this thing… A core team to create a regenerative ecosystem… You’ve learned that doing it by yourself is not regenerative. You might be facing challenges with:- Navigating emotions within yourself and the team - Burnout, discouragement, fatigue - Going in...
You can only be in one of two teams: 1) The looking-good team, or 2) The learning team. You cannot be in both. Learning requires NOT looking good. Imagine trying to learn to play guitar but you're not willing to make mistakes. Learning starts with being with your incompetence. Learning that you are incompetent can be terrifying. It can trigger your box defence mechanisms dedicated to: Maintain the status quo Keep things normal and unchanging Maintain the image you have of yourself Maintain...
