Every time you try to “do it right,” for a system, you have to abandon what you know in your body.

The SKILL I talk about in this episode is the skill of building SELF-DETERMINED value.

This is the skill of being able to discern in your body
what is actually right for you
and your work
and your people.

There are
cultural hybridities
vantage points
insights and ideas
strengths
uncommon or marginal knowledges
that are calling you to SEE them as value.

This skill is you: 
Transmitting belief in that value
+
building structure that backs that belief.

I don't know any more valuable skillset: This is world making.

The ability to exercise CHOICE in what reality you operate in, and how you respond, is a kind of freedom.
Not freedom from accountability.
But freedom to be in integrity with what you *actually* most value.

In the first of four 'bridge' episodes (from this podcast to the next!), I speak to how starting with low belief is just part of the work.
And what the experience is like, when a practiced belief gathers enough evidence to reach a crescendo of conviction; 

A "leap of faith" becomes available!

Part Two of my big announcement is the NEW DIRECTION and focus of my coaching: 

which is YOUR WORK IN THE WORLD

Episode Notes

Self belief that you can create a new thing in the world, or in your life
that you can be in new ways
starts low
and builds as you create evidence that your body brain nervous systems understand as a REALITY that can be trusted
and BELIEVED.

Until that point,
you best source of belief is your own ACTIONS
and being able to keep moving forward during the ‘lag time’ between the doing and REALITY around you catching up.

But there is another source of potent belief: DECISIONS.
not just any decisions

but the ones which ask you to EXPAND
to be BIGGER that your problem
to decide that you are up for the HARD
and willing to ride the waves to make it REAL.

This episode is about those kinds of decisions.

I speak to how my own recent decision to ‘handle it’
to move through difficulty without compromising on my dreams
to SHOW UP for what I want
and the impact of that on my self belief.

In this week’s episode of The Unmasking Unschool Podcast,

I am joined by Rebekah Ubuntu (they/them, she/her)
who generously shares their unique perspective on what it means to be in transition;

Refusing to be a finished product; a destination, a known self,
and being open to the mystery of being in process.

Rebekah articulates felt truths that have emerged inside the experience of not knowing, and not needing to know, who they are becoming next;

"refusal as an act of love"

“in honouring refusal, I am also visualising everything that is refused, not being rejected or thrown away […] Composting as a literal phenomena [that] I derive a lot of hope, not necessarily optimism, but hope that even in the face of life destroying forces, that nature has a way of bringing some kind of balance.”
