Holding the space for people to gather together online has been the most important work I have done this year. @priyaparker wrote an excellent guidebook to the facilitation of meetings and events. #theartofgathering describes how “a gathering’s social contract is often invisible to us, even when we are carrying out its commands.” . The creation and protection of that invisible social contract is the duty of the host, and Parker’s book is full of rich examples from her own #facilitation career. These examples make the book an enjoyable read, counterpointing the lessons with real-world examples of application. . In preparation for my Zoom Host Intensive, where I teach people how to lead better Zoom meetings, I have enjoyed studying this book. . For anyone who leads meetings or hosts events, this book will give you deeper insight on your own gatherings - and that insight will lead to deeper connections, better conversations, and a clearer purpose behind why we meet. https://www.instagram.com/p/CEQKWIWhvBb/?igshid=1l84rvjclhcpe
One of my favourite things to do is turn on some chill music (the “pulse of Americana on Spotify), pour a glass of wine and cook a nice meal. Since Norah has been born it’s been hard to do that. She went through a mommy only, no swing, or even carrier phase for a bit. That was tough. But today she’s content wit my wearing her, she’s been fed and I was able to get into the kitchen like the old days. It was nice. It IS nice to get a sense of yourself back after giving it up to take care of your tiny human. #imsomartha #beautifulcuisines #foodblogfeed #theartofgathering #thebotanicalkitchen #missnorahm #babygirlnorah #littlefierceones #momswithcameras #letthembelittle #takemydearheart (at Victoria, British Columbia) https://www.instagram.com/p/B-ar0Yxjg5-/?igshid=1xkvigzk8fqbu
How to really connect at your next family gathering for the @ted Ideas blog by @priyaparker. Turns out, painting mylar balloons is quite satisfying.
