Connection question below. 2 of 4 children answered it. I stand at the school doors to greet students. I asked many of them this question and got lots of I don't know's. Maybe 7:55 am is too early to ask questions....

Today's connection was complimenting a student who is kicking butt with a mission trip find raiser. Today's connection was also telling students, "I'm glad you are here SAFE" as they got into the building. We had snow move in at 7 am and it was horrible. School wasn't delayed since the weather didn't hit until 7'am and busses were out. I was nearly involved in a head-on collision; so grateful the car that went left of center didn't hit me and I could get over enough. It's the worst commute I had so far. Just glad the drive home was much better and that I get to hug my babies tonight.

Happy Sunday, Tribe and wishing everyone abundance and good mojo for the coming week! Welcome to our Polish brother @Marcin Czachorski and NZ brother @Jerry Beale and all the rest of the good folks who joined the tribe this week. Here's what's going on to catch you up to speed and a nudge to the rest of the community to get involved in this month's challenge to level up your relationships and resiliency. We are running monthly challenges following the Archetypes sequence that shows up in both the Tribe Triangle culture map and the Hero's Journey map of life. The Sovereign launches the journey with vision (we did that last month) followed by Lover that generates belonging with ourselves (which is resiliency) and belonging with others (which is relationships). Next month is Warrior house where we push fitness, discipline and boundaries followed by Magician which is mastery, efficiency and structure. These challenges involve a daily commitment to explore and establish a new behavior to improve our life and the impact our lives in the world. We post daily for accountability and that is important. We will always do more for the honor to others than we will do for ourselves. That consistency is challenging but it is the only way to establish new life practices. There are many times in the last two months that I would have missed my practice but I did it for the sake of accountability and now have a more fulfilling and successful life. I plan on continuing that journey of setting goals and implementing those rituals into my life. We have a Sunday check in at 4pm PST and the link is on the calendar here. No call this Sunday as folks are watching the super bowl but will commence next Sunday. To the new folks, take some time to explore the classroom section of this app to find a bunch of workshops and webinars to level up your personal and professional development. Keep a look out this coming week for an invite to an open Wolf Tribe program out at the wolf sanctuary in March. I also plan on finishing my Iron John webinar that will be in the classroom section of this app.

thought I’d share my winter list and my 2026 motto card. I have these strategically placed in my life to remind me of what my perfect day is during Q1 (having learned in 2025 that the Perfect Day changes with the seasons and when life shows up unexpectedly, I’ve revamped mine to reflect not only what is aspirational but also achievable so that I can focus on the habit forming little wins and momentum building in the rest season) As you can see, a majority of my winter is spent in resiliency and relationships - as those take the biggest hit when “war season” arrives. Been working diligently on my hiring process and cracking the labor code… have a mock interview scheduled today with a 26 year old family friend to start testing out my new interviewing process and expectations agreement. Also, about 90 pages from wrapping up my second book of the winter…. NO PLAYING SMALL

Exercised. Graded papers. Attended the Connectors Lab and met two wonderful women to connect with over the next 11 mos. More grading and made a video for patching (started a new one today). Had a grace-filled therapy session and made lesson plans for tomorrow. Got my patch manual in the mail today....loads of info inside!!
