Together We Expand
a poem
*These words were written and shared at the Leadership That Works’ Coaching For Transformation 2018 Cohort Graduation, with love and gratitude for my experience in the program.
…
An expression. A journey only just begun. To come in curious, and come out curious-er. All the while knowing and unknowing.
There is magic here.
And why is seeing, and honoring, and accepting without judgement - empowering new possibilities and authenticity in each other considered to be so magical? So, other?
And so, we heal. Our power sits awakened, ready. It needs help. It needs you. It needs this. It yearns.
A small stone sinks to the bottom in silence and waits. To draw us into our center. A mirror of our truest reflection.
Soul shook. Tears wept. Stories burned.
In dialogue with no words- only intention and intuition as guide for action.
To work from the inside out and from the outside in.
This is my voice. My voice right now. Speaking right here. I am learning to trust. I am learning to love.
My experience is not your experience.
Your experience is not my experience.
Our experience is not their experience.
Their experience is not our experience.
And together we listen. Together we hold. Together we expand.
