Join your host, Anna Lucas, as she looks back on season one of the Spark Connection podcast. In this episode Anna reflects on her original intention with this project, to "live boldly and lead with love." In this season one wrap, she shares take-a-ways from each conversation with esteemed teachers and friends, and reflects on key themes that emerged when exploring how we can cultivate connection and build community at the individual, organizational, and community levels.
Anna recaps learnings around self-compassion and anchoring around the process vs. outcome, she talks about the power of ritual and listening within an organizational context, and she reminds us that meaningful community change begins with meaningful relationships.
