299: Mio A. revisits

🔸 Sitting quietly. "Not facts or stories, but feelings."

🔹 Parts:

Enveloped in shame, zombied. A 7 year old in blue overalls. Needs Mio to let go of fixing, speed, tangible results; just witness, be there and not run away.

🎓 What I'd like to do differently:

When Im this quiet it’s not because I'm thinking “I should be quiet”, it’s not a “technique” I'm employing… usually I just have nothing to add.

Of course there’s a part desperately searching: "Say something clever! What dots can I connect?" And of course “someone better at this would have something to say here..."

Mio is right, she has come so far. As have I, in cocreating this space. And I may not know how to improve on that, but I know how to spoil it!

Are we still paying for not being more direct with the story teller? It’s tough. This is a conversation, after all. But as long as we can stop it when it really counts, at least we're not going backwards.
