Small steps, Big changes, Part 5: Brainstorm, Trial and Error

Good morning! ☀️

Some quick housekeeping things:

Next Patron-only Live chat: The next one will be Sunday, September 10 at 12PM PDT / 3PM EDT / 9PM Berlin CEST. The link will go out that morning, and any patron at any tier can show up to ask me whatever you want.

Patreon Video / No chapter markers: I'm now uploading videos directly to Patreon, rather than using Vimeo. There are mostly upsides to this in terms of playback quality, creating playlists, and the ability to give previews. But they don't yet have the feature of chapter markers. I will still include Timecodes in my video post, so you can roughly go to the area of interest. I hope it's not too much of an inconvenience.

Last week's podcast recommendation: I wound up taking it down because people were clicking on it without reading my notes, re: what I do and don't cosign. While there are always opinions in any podcast that might not mesh with my own, that one felt riskier than others to just recommend without caveat, so I'd rather be on the safer side.

Today is the final part in my Small steps, Big changes series, where I dive into the brainstorming and trial / error of things. 

Timecode:

• 0.00 Intro
• 01.52 Reviewing what / why / when / where / who
• 4.56 Are there built-in steps?
• 07.13 Consistent check ins and care
• 08.05 Are there small, medium and large versions of the next step?
• 14.09 Double checking priorities
• 18.45 Do you trust each other? Who else is your support?
• 20.52 Outro

This was an ambitious topic for me to tackle, while trying to stay accessible to anyone in any situation. I hope some of the prompts and tools might be helpful, if you're currently in the middle of making a big change.
