Letting Go after 11 years

on Mon, 2023-12-04 18:31

After 11 years on this journey of joy and learning, I am closing down my foundation, having transferred the monies into a donor advised fund. So much has happened since 2012, including grants to many organizations, 16 retreats, 100+ zoom Check-in's, 50+ Gatherings, publication of the Principle Quest Unwrapped facilitator's guide, and three Gatherings hosted at my home (sometimes it was a bit sweltering!@#) 

While I am letting go of facilitating retreats, I remain deeply committed to our remarkable community of women – 150+ stong.

Riding the Waves - Gathering of Principle Quest Community June 23

on Wed, 2022-05-25 16:18

 

Twenty-five women came together virtually to address

 how to keep a balance during such troubling and troubled times.

Connecting and discovering renewed resolve and hope for the future,  

we cherished the support of this community, seeing ways to act, not just ache.

 

Excerpt from Amanda Gorman's poem:

“May we not just grieve, but give:
May we not just ache, but act

Maybe everything hurts,
Our hearts shadowed & strange.
But only when everything hurts
May everything change.”

Pivot, transform, tinker, re-pot, sustain or let go – take your pick for 2022.

A Principle Quest Gathering – even online – can be inspiring. Yesterday 20 women connected for insights, support, and fun!

Power at Work was the subject of Sunday's Gathering where 21 of us explored power and influence with candor, vulnerability and humor, all striving to be more self-aware. When my personality fully aligns with my soul is one definition of authentic power. Changing the world requires knowing our impact and stepping up to be our best. Thank you to those who were there!

All 29 of us were outside, and while boiling hot, it didn't rain! One of our exercises: Imagine if your heroine was right here looking at you today, what might she say – advice, an affirmation, a warning? I am grateful to this community of women, who traveled to be here, reconnected, laughed, too, in spite of Henri, Delta, etc.! #community

Do the best you can until you know better.

Then, when you know better, do better.

Our evening included a poll revealing where we work, how we react to change, and our state of mind post-pandemic. The breakouts invited connection and a feeling of 'ahhh...I am not alone!'
