I somehow never posted this but used these questions as a warm up for the GFE session on 11/20 last week and wanted to post the questions here for folks to use now that holiday season is afoot and, well, it might be a good time to get into conversations with folks.

This you? Not me.
SO as the world opens up, the question came up in the chat about hints for travel and packing. I did a stream about it, took some notes, and opened up a google doc for folks to ask questions.

This process is well known, and I’ve done this exercise with teams big and small. I think this exercise is great for relationships, organizations, projects, etc. We can, from time to time, go into autopilot, and this exercise gives us the opportunity pause the presses and evaluate where we are. Please be mindful about this exercise being one that requires community agreements and grace, space, and pace. Keep those who are introverts aware of what’s happening, but thoughtful about how you introduce the work and facilitate discussion (there will be a lot). I like using sticky notes for this exercise and a large wall. You can replicate it with a piece of paper. Very low tech.

Open Up
Taking space to heal is both scary and freeing.
On stream, we did what I call Catch and Release, letting folks type their responses first, and when prompted, hit the enter button, giving everyone a chance to write without editing. We also set up for ourselves the space to reflect and connect, and we have a !godeeper command so folks can be encouraged to tell us more. Only if they want to.
