CONTEXT: WE SPEAK OUR WORLD INTO EXISTENCE Powerful communication is a hallmark skill for Pioneer Leaders. Your voice "speaks" to your vision, to who you are and what you stand for, and to how you choose to create a model of your future in the present. Through our language, when we speak (write,sing, etc) something we give it life. From there, it shapes our present which shapes our future. TO FIND IMPLIES SOMETHING IS LOST... What’s been coming up with my clients is language around "finding" the voice. This suggests that it’s something external and out of their grasp. It’s also a commonly used phrase, so it leads to common results. TO FREE ACKNOWLEDGES IT WAS ALWAYS YOURS TO BEGIN WITH I choose the distinction of "Freeing" your voice to restore power and ownership back to you immediately. You already have your voice. It’s within you and has always been. We’ve just learned how to trap it within a cage of convention that prevents that voice from being let loose on the world - even if you know exactly what it is you’d want to be saying (writing, creating, painting, etc). FREEING YOU VOICE CAN HAPPEN IN AN INSTANT The work of a Pioneer leader is simply to let that voice free. Heads up: when first unleashed it will likely be raw. That is OK and just part of the process. As you free it up more and more, you’ll continue to refine it. And from there, once you have tamed your free voice, you can evolve it and let it grow. There’s more coming to mind, and I choose to stop here. FROM INSIGHT TO APPLICATION: YOU INVITATION My voice is telling me in this moment to host a conversation and exploration around "Freeing your Voice" for you and other Pianeers. Let’s do it this Tuesday, Jan 22 at 630 pm EST over zoom video conference! Comment "FREE MY VOICE" or just let me know you are coming through a message. WHAT CAN YOU EXPECT AS A RESULT OF JOINING Honestly, expect nothing. Expecting anyone else to provide the result is akin to the external focus of finding your voice. You choose how you want to play. This is specifically designed for you to challenge you, to give you space to grow exponentially, to play outside of your comfort, and to be supported along the way. We create the environment, you create the results. If one person shows up, you’ll get coachee by me. If 5 show up, you will get coached by me and also benefit from learning through others. And if there’s even more interest, you’ll get to explore through small-group facilitated discussions where you’ll both free your voice and contribute to a unique set of Pioneer leaders doing the same. This will not be a teaching webinar - there’s enough information out there. This is a learning experience facilitated through conversations - it’s about application not information. No prep needed and I’m waiving forms this time. If you choose to join and play, put yourself in a place where you can speak openly, honestly, and with focus. Because the focus is you.
