I just finished another Monday night in men’s group, and I have to say, I am so fucking grateful for these men. My leadership journey started a long time ago. Through relentless self-confrontation. No doubt about it. My experience has been earned. But I feel deeply ready for a much different version of my leadership. A relationship that lasts, perhaps a family of my own, though not guaranteed. Regardless, I have been clearing space to allow what is meant for me to find me. Having the conversations that bring clarity. And I have another one coming next week. The last ambiguous relationship I am a part of: work. Some of the men in group think I am foolish for offering my leadership to a place that didn’t really help create the conditions for it to thrive, but I have to do this this way. Even foolishly. One way or another, I will bring clarity to my purpose. I have no idea what that will ultimately look like, but I don’t need certainty right now. I know what the stakes are, and I am comfortable here.
