Fireside Chat Reflection 09/22/2026
In todays conversation, we discussed a lighthouse - and choosing your hard.
The lighthouse stays where it belongs.
It leaves the light on, provides direction, withstands storms.
It does not leave the shore every time someone gets in rough water.
Am I willing to do hard things? Yes, you already know you are willing and CAN DO hard things.
The question then becomes: Is this hard thing mine to do??
Is it hard because I'm growing, because I'm avoiding something else I need to do, or because I'm trying to steer someone else's ship?
There are 2 kinds of hard:
Showing Up
Having the conversation
Making the change
Keeping the promise you made yourself
Doing the scary thing
and there is:
Fixing everybody
Absorbing their problems
Staying in situations that drown you
Rescuing people who aren't navigating their own ship.
When we step in and provide solutions - what happens if our solutions don't work? Then we become someone who can be blamed. Period.
It's our job to guide, suggest, and LET THEM.
Most of the big learning came from going through it ourselves, and learning the lessons along the way. It's invaluable to find your own way through the hard.
This will guide you to growing into the person you're supposed to be.
Today's conversation was insightful, and hopefully the lighthouse will remind you to stand strong, be a guidepost for direction, and support if needed.
See you all next week. ❤️
