Dear community Saturday was epic. Six hours in nature with social impact leaders and directors. We created space. Reoriented the compass. Cultivated energy for life and impact. Energy. Clarity. Space. Those were the goals. Interestingly, all men. A small intimate group of director-level men. That felt powerful. Men in social impact, taking time to reflect, be still, go deep emotionally, AND be playful! It doesn’t happen enough. I know many of you can't make it to the retreat space, so I...
