Intention

Intention is everything, n'ect-ce pas? So let's start there.

This pod is intended as a meeting point for people in business for themselves with an emphasis on those providing services. So many of us have the desire to make our living in the world in our own way and with the aspiration of doing some good, maybe even a lot of good. Often, this has to be done outside of the tried-and-true structure of large organizations. The trade-off for going it solo or in small groups is a potential feeling of isolation or dearth of support.

The emphasis on service is because so many of us are training so hard to be of service in the world. And because, in practical terms of setting up and maintaining a business, bodywork, for example, has much in common with coaching or sales versus manufacturing or another field.

The support we share here can be emotional (celebrating and commiserating) as well as practical (answering questions, sharing resources, networking). It's yours; what do you need today?

As I step out into a new phase of self-determination, I would like to feel the support of the universe (which is there whether we feel it or not, right?). This pod serves me in that way, too, and I hope it does for you as well.
