Taking Risks to Be Real

I had a great morning with the supervisors that I work with.  We have been doing coaching together, coaching that helps us to better support each other, and to better provide support and structure for all the people we work with.  Today we all took risks,  not only engaged our heads, but allowed ourselves to not only operate from a very cognitive place, but recognize our emotions.  Sounds easy, of course, but in a world of constant change, lots of work to be done, the ability to be real to "exhale" ourselves and help to create a space for all of us to "exhale".  Well, that is  a gift.

So as the snow blows, the winds bring really cold air, and there is the complete reminder that winter will not go away with out a little more of a fight.  There is a ray of sunshine and a warmth in a shared commitment and desire to do our work well, and to pay attention to each other.  There is time for this even as the winds blow and the grey clouds stretch across the sky.

Taking risks can be tough, but if it gains a better understanding and added support, it's all worth it! We're having a little more winter here tonight, too, hopefully, the end of it. But of course both kids are on the road this week end for various reasons, making me a nervous Mom!
