How The Fireside works
Welcome to The Fireside 🔥 Think of this space the way you’d think about a circle of chairs around a campfire. People gather, share stories, ask questions, and sometimes just sit quietly and listen. There’s no pressure here to perform, impress, or have everything figured out. Just thoughtful conversation and a place to slow down for a moment. Here’s how the Fireside works: Fireside Chats: This is the main circle around the fire. Reflections from our Fireside Coffee chats, thoughtful discussions, and open conversations about life. Stories by the Fire: Moments that meant something to you. A memory, a lesson, a small story from your life that might encourage someone else. Sit With This: A question or thought worth pondering. These posts are meant to spark reflection and go deep. (My blog posts land here as well) Small Sparks: Tiny actions or ideas that create small shifts. Simple things that help bring a little more clarity, calm, or intention into life. Fireside Questions: Something on your mind? Bring it to the circle. Sometimes the best conversations start with one honest question. Campfire News: Welcomes, updates about upcoming Fireside Coffee chats, and community announcements. A few simple Fireside guidelines: • Be kind and respectful • Share honestly but without pressure • Listen as much as you speak • Leave the space better than you found it Some people will share often.Others may sit quietly and read for a while before speaking. Both are welcome here. Pull up a chair. The fire’s already going.

Upcoming Fireside Chat 11/10/2026 pre-work
Watch the attached music video "The Me That Remains" by Amy Grant for next weeks Fireside Chat You can find it in the comments below. Lyrics: Coming out of the dark, coming out of this cave It's taken me months of days and years to find my way My face in the mirror doesn't look the same But I recognize a light in my eyes that never did fade And I'm gonna find, yeah, find and revive the me that remains Life cut me wide open when my head hit the ground It wasn't my time for dying, guess my soul just stuck around And out of this wreckage, I'm beginning to claim The gifts, and the healing, and the me that remains Coming out of the dark, stеpping into the day It's taken me months of days and yеars finding my way When I look in the mirror, so much has changed But I recognize a light in my eyes that never did fade And I'm gonna find, yeah, find and revive the me that remains I barely can remember looking for a change A whole lot of a little too much was always in my way And whatever angels happened to draw my name I hope they see how proud I am to be the me that remains Coming out of the dark, coming out of this grave It's taken me months of days and years, still finding my way My smile in the mirror is enough for today Reflecting the light deep down inside that never will fade And I'm gonna try and always be kind to the me that remains To the me that remains

Fireside Chat Reflection 10/27/2026
A conversation with Dianne.... We discussed how in a recent conversation with Dianne, she touched on some points that made me think. 1. How long do you have to apologize for your work? In context, this was regarding making minor errors after years of solid dedicated work, and how the errors seem to be marquee level noticeable now. 2. How much time will you have to give yourself?......(to make the decision) 3. How long will you waffle between here and there? 4. Once you learn it's possible to be authentic, why would I ever go back? 5. Absence of connection. (this group vs a grief group, or a client connection vs transaction) Please add your notes below, this was an unforgettable time around the fire

Fireside Chat Reflection 10/20/26
On Tuesday, we chatted about the circle we surround ourselves with . I shared a story about my son who is a pilot and had somewhat an emergency during a flight with his fiance and her friend. And how once on the ground they were trying to find the best solution. His fiance, who works in aerospace (on rockets) came up with a "bandaid" fix that was FAA approved and got them home. We talked about Pride, Humility, Sharing our Experience, and Listening. All skills we need in our circle of friends. It made me wonder how often we struggle to figure out something on our own when sitting right next to us might be the one person who could help the most, or even just share a perspective we had not considered. Are we more or less willing to ask for help if needed as we age? Are we more or less willing to accept it if it is offered? Things to ponder!
