I hope y'all had a great turkey day. I'm curious though, does this time of year overwhelm you? What I have seen is for at least 90% of people it does, for entrepreneurs it's closer to 98%. I don't need to outline all the reasons why its overwhelming, you know, even if you wont admit it. Know that you are in good company. This is the time of year stress is at an all time high. Now is NOT the time to keep it to yourself. Now is the time to make it known. My hope is this can be a place to do that. Understand this isn't an invitation to "dump". It is an invitation to communicate the overwhelm and get support working through it if you want. I don't expect all the vulnerable nitty gritty details, just simply a "Yeah, I'm overwhelmed." Then we can take it from there. I know this is uncomfortable and probably feels weird, but I'm here for it, for you.

Well, what’s the latest? How was your week? I’ll put my update in the comments.

I had a few private convos over the weekend and there was a common theme. Essentially, it was the need to connect with your mission and build frameworks around it to hold yourself accountable. Made me wonder how many are also feeling disconnected from their mission and are struggling to stay accountable to the actions and routines they committed to. "Mission" being, the purpose and why behind the thing you do. I know this is new, I know this may feel vulnerable. It's supposed to be a little bit. That's how we improve. Now, my questions. 1st question: Do you feel connected to your mission? 2nd question: Do you feel in control of your daily and weekly rhythms?

As the week progresses, you’ll start to see more folks rolling. The goal is NOT to make this a huge group, but rather, an intentional one. A community focused on action and accountability. What has been built out so far is really to start laying the groundwork. Where it goes from here, how it gets refined, and tailored will be based on the needs and desires of the people. YOU! So, as we continue to settle in, get cozy, begin connecting, sharing, and collaborating, things will begin to get tweaked to better facilitate the community. In the meantime, I encourage you to open up. You are here, and that means I am…and we are…ALL here to help. While we might not be in the same industries, we are pursuing the same type of freedom and are wanting to leave the same type of legacy. Along the way, regardless of business seniority or income levels, we will face the same types of challenges, bottlenecks, hurdles, and insecurities. We are here to face them, together. However, in order to do that, we all have to be willing to be a bit vulnerable and intentional with our communication here. With that said, I want to know, what are you working on in your business and what do you need assistance with? Also, @Grace Sloggett kicked is off with the first intro video (instructions found in the “START HERE” module). Follow her lead, make that quick intro video to introduce you and your business so we can all get to know each other better. Let’s do this!
