I love this. What a beautiful blue card to pull for my friends. Ya – you guys are friends now, not just writing cronies.
I also love the idea of asking with an expectation that you will receive. Plus, training the asking muscle – to ask wiser and wiser questions.
What a beautiful thought – that learning to ask questions is a journey – just like everything else. The process of learning to ask for what you truly want. To feel open to receiving. No judgement, no punishment, no feeling selfish or weak for asking.
It took me a long time to realize this. I thought if I didn’t have the answer to all questions, then I hadn’t done enough research, was not right for the job, was too naive, or would be called out.
I like this term the GenZed’ers have brought to light – “calling in”. I’m not totally sure what it means – but it feels like a gentler more inclusive way of interjecting when someone has gone down a path that will likely cause harm to others.
Blues and golds. A direct gaze. Staring straight out at the audience. Being supported. A sense of knowing – embodied in posture and how she holds her body and her gaze.
Strong, stable, deep blue – yet coated in bright light – warm, golden hues kissing her brow and cheeks.
