In reply to Sherry Matheson. Thanks Sherrie, I so often wish that she was still here! I’d love to be able to sit with her and have a ‘mature woman to mature woman’ conversation with her! She had such profound wisdom!

Beautiful, heartfelt post, Joss. Now I miss your mom too! I’d love to be outside in our developing garden but it’s pouring rain today which is why I’m in my office reading your post.

Happy birthday, mum. I will have a cup of tea today in her honour.

Interesting take on the evolution of the #MeToo movement.

Very interesting and insightful perspective, especially the double edged sword. I choose to embrace #HumanFirst

In reply to John.

Thanks John, what I like about this is the pointing towards the ‘reactive’ state. And for a leader it seems important to be able to determine when a ‘natural ability/ style or preference’ goes reactive. How does it affect those around one? It seems like ‘leader in front’ needs to also be agile in ‘leader in the field’!

Love the concept of “slowing down” so that others can stay connected and contribute more effectively. I know how easy it can be to disconnect from the chaos when it isn’t making sense, and end up in a totally reactive state of blame and apathy (“they’re completely out of control and there’s nothing I can do about it, so I might as well check out.”)
AND, you’ve made me think more about alternatives for the Leader behind to bring to the space. There are always options for finding a place to serve, so shifting to the reactive place is actually a choice, thought not always conscious (up until now!).
