Hey hey, Victor, So glad you joined! Get after the pinned post and share your story.

Hey all, This concept just came to me (5am thoughts) and I wonder what you think about it. The “Mining for Me” self-reflection and empowerment activity is designed to guide participants in exploring self-identity and transformation. Here’s a step-by-step plan for implementing this exercise effectively: Mining for Me 1. Prompt Responses (10-15 Min) Objective: Have participants reflect on various aspects of their identity, strengths, and perceived needs. Instructions Provide participants with prompts on separate pieces of paper such as: “I have…” “I am…” “I need…” “People think…” “I feel…” “I want…” “I believe…” “I try to…” “I like…” “I usually…” Ask participants to write down 10 phrases to complete these prompts, reflecting honestly without self-editing. 2. Categorize and Reflect (10-15 Min) Objective: Separate reflections into aspects they celebrate versus aspects they’d like to transform. Instructions Guide participants to review their phrases and categorize them into two groups: A, Celebrate: Aspects of themselves they are proud of or grateful for. B. Change: Aspects they would like to shift or improve. Encourage them to pause and reflect on what each category means for them personally. 3. Transformation Through Rewording (10-15 Min) Objective: Convert desired changes into positive, affirming statements. Instructions For each item in the “Change” category, ask participants to write an aspirational or empowering version of the phrase. For instance, if they wrote, “I feel uncertain in new situations,” they might transform it to, “I am confident and adaptive in all situations.” This reframing helps participants to visualize and embrace the qualities they wish to embody. 4. Create the Diamond Me Mantra (10 Min) Objective: Build a concise mantra or affirmation that embodies their desired self-image to be spoken out loud daily. Instructions Invite participants to distill their transformed phrases into a written expression that includes all of the traits (current and in-development). Encourage them to make this mantra a part of their daily routine by writing it on a mirror, creating a visual reminder, or setting a daily intention around it.

I just got off a call with a friend who is hurting. Recent events, both national and personal have her at a loss. She showed up for the call with me. Happily I was able to listen and express how I’m here for her. THAT is all I can do. Show up. For myself For others Consistently. You all may not know each other yet, but I’m supremely confident that this is a group that can listen and make space for any hurt that wishes to be voiced here. If you would like to hop on a call with me, I’m here. If you would like to have a weekly call open to all of us, I’m here. Let me know. I’m still here. IMH
