Episode Description
This week we are talking about the power of cultivating agency in ourselves and each other. We will talk about what agency is and why it matters. We will introduce a simple framework to help us see the agency we have in a situation at work or in our lives. We will review the various parts of the innerforce process that support us in both meeting a situation and seeing our agency in the midst of it. In our New Ventures West segment, we will be joined by Melinda Stephenson who is a certified Integral coach and consultant with over 22 years of experience in human development and who also serves as a member of the New Ventures West faculty. As we learn how to simultaneously hold the difficulty in a situation and cultivate our own agency, we expand our capacity and resiliency to meet the situation and thrive in the midst of it. This is what being connected to our innerforce is all about. Join Angela King and Melinda Stephenson to learn how.
