What Gap?  Children of the Baby Boomers do stand out in how "we" communicate, work and think.  This is not to put anyone in a box.  This is to have a little fun with how great we are together at what we do when we do work together.  Personally speaking, Parents proudly share their up and coming  offspring as gifted and talented and starting a new adventure. They refer them with great pride. In the same sentence they may downplay who they are in their gifts and life goals.   
 
The result of how we are defined  by trends and life happenings of our times continues to change and evolve continually.   (referencing Wikipedia)     There are tons of misunderstood descriptions of  how each generation thinks or acts or learns or communicate.  We are powerful at any age and the box has been replaced with no limitations and no walls unless we choose to write off  problems or issues that can occur in our differences.

Take for instance the cell phone.  Who has it clued to their hands and who leaves it unattended until they feel they feel like checking it.  Here is a crazy fun example.
  "Mom, where are you?  I am calling you? "( text message from Daughter... 10am ) 
( 7pm Mom replies)  "Hi Honey! How are you?"
Daughter:  "Why didn't you answer your phone?"
Mom:    " It was in my purse and I was in the laundry room."

So you know how that conversation can go from here .  Gap- in why one feels one way about something as simple as a cell phone.     

Hope you enjoy the episode and download it for your convenience.  Here is what we are working on now and invite you to check it out.

Tool #1-transparency.  Starts with believing that-- It's very, okay to be you. You are one of a kind, you are unique.

So we want to take a minute to appreciate all the wonderful and unique things about you look in the mirror and say you Yes, I'm talking to you.  I'll use myself as an example throughout this conversation because I really want to go through the layers and and give us ourselves some perspective on the power of the uniqueness. And the wonderful, I guess, wonderfulness. That's my word of being you.

Just a brief overview of the full episode segment transcript  for our Listeners.

My heart broke  at the reports of prominent people in the spotlight and  little ones and some of our everyday He'ros and She"roes who left this life in this short period,  The added element that they left not by illness but by harms.   It motivated me to want to remind my fellow Listeners and Voyagers on life's journey that life is a gift and there is so much more after your FIRST THERE!!  Be encouraged.

Be encouraged as you listen to the journey of my mind's view of the freedom we have to continue as long as allowed by God to run this amazing race.  Like time travelers we get to witness stages of our lives with our mind evolving everyday.

Your Life is like a Time Capsule filled with experiences of every stage of our lives.  Remember you are not alone.  Embrace the changes that comes with each new adventure and accomplishment. Set the course for your next "THERE".  You get to evolve.  You get to age!  You get to see what you never knew was waiting for you.

Be encouraged is the message of our HOST!  Don't jump ship before your NEXT- THERE!

Get excited about the unknown next step.  Get the help you need for mind, body and soul.
Get connected even when stuck at home reach out by way of phone, internet and wear a mask and go meet some NEW POSITIVE PEOPLE OF NEW GIFTS.  BE ENCOURAGED!

Collaborations can be a win win for all participants if we take the time at the beginning to have crucial detail conversations of what each party expects and is hoping for.  In this Master Class Part 1 only, we share the importance of talking and not just hoping and assuming that others understand each others unspoken thoughts.

It is easy to end up not speaking at the conclusion of the project or the Collaborators can create a massive  success.  One that is worthy of repeating  year after year.    If you are like many business owners you want to see fruit from some of the contacts you meet at networking events. 

As  a Master Strategist,  Mary has a unique talent for creating projects where are hands are on deck and the focus is on the end game with all participants talents showcased.  You are in business to make a profit, if not it could be a very expensive hobby.
