Joy Letters

🦩 ripples of delight 🦩


Guten Tag, Reader,

“You are a delight,” someone said to me as I left a networking thing last week.*

“I know,” I answered, “and adding delight to the world is an important part of my mission.”

This is not an exchange that would have occurred during my successful (measured by numbers and titles) corporate career.

I did not see myself as a delight, nor was any part of my mission to spread delight. It usually had something to do with KPIs, ROIs, CTRs, or whatever acronym was the measure of success at the time.

Fast forward to this week, and I quite literally send delight into the world in the form of my Advent Calendar reflection deck.

✨ You can still get yours here in time for December 1. ✨

wildHER is coming back

Another delight last week was our integration call with this year’s wildHER river retreat participants.

We processed lingering ripples, navigated around some boulders that had appeared in their paths, and stepped back into the flow toward a wildHER life.

The bonds that have formed between those women are truly remarkable. They have allowed each other to see and know their essential Selves. We laughed and cried and spoke truths like

“Laughter is a spell that conjures hope.”

If you want to become a part of this community of rewilding women I have excellent news:

We just revealed next year’s dates and location to the alumnae, but it will be a minute until we open the remaining seats up for registration. Reply to this email and tell us why you want to come, and we'll add you to the waitlist.

(No need to write an essay; I have been known to be convinced by one good sentence, or even a spellbinding word).

Tell Me

What is delightful about you today? (Nothing is not an option).
​
How might you add delight to your community/family this week? (Make sure it also brings you joy, no hustle here.)

I will see you back here in two weeks. If you liked this letter, please forward it to a friend.

Always on your side, truly,
