Hello Community here's what's new in the ID@Work Community: 1. 🤖 Human Skills for the AI Era We had such a rich conversation in our Skill Builder on Tuesday, exploring the intersection of AI, the heart, and the mind — sparked by Daniel Pink's A Whole New Mind. We asked: what do we bring that's irreducibly human? What came up in our discussion: 🌍 Context and culture — AI generates content, but humans understand why this story, for these people, right now 🌸 Embodied and feminine knowing — Nadene named it: AI was largely built without women at the table. That shapes what gets captured and what gets flattened. 🤝 Presence — touch, laughter, tears. We can't prompt for that. 💡 Forward thinking + emotional connection — imagining futures we haven't lived yet, holding space for what's unspoken --- 2. 🧪 Sales Lab Recap: Resistance vs Resonance When a client pushes back with "prove it works" or "how do we measure this?", they're not saying no. They're saying: I'm not sure this is safe yet. We explored how to decode those signals — how to hear what's underneath the language of ROI and scalability, and find the entry point that actually resonates. Nadene shared a beautiful metaphor: it's like sowing seeds in soil. You don't force the seed. You read the soil. The recording and updated slides will be available in the community for our Premium members shortly. Here's where you can upgrade to Premium. --- 3. 📅 Skill Builder next Tuesday: 'What do you do when people don't want to collaborate?' Next Tuesday's Skill Builder session takes on one of the most common (and quietly exhausting) challenges in inner development work: what happens when the very people who need to collaborate... don't want to. Open to all members. See you next Tuesday, March 24th, bright and early at 8.30 am CET --- As always, drop your questions, reflections, or encouragements in the comments.

We had such a rich conversation today exploring the intersection of AI, the heart, and the mind — sparked by Daniel Pink's A Whole New Mind. His premise: the future belongs to the human capacities that logic can't replicate. Which feels urgent now that AI has the left-brain stuff pretty well covered. So we asked: what do we bring that's irreducibly human? What came up in our discussion: 🌍 Context and culture — AI generates content, but humans understand why this story, for these people, right now 🌸 Embodied and feminine knowing — Nadene named it: AI was largely built without women at the table. That shapes what gets captured and what gets flattened. 🤝 Presence — touch, laughter, tears. We can't prompt for that. 💡 Forward thinking + emotional connection — imagining futures we haven't lived yet, holding space for what's unspoken Pink also named six human skills for the AI era, I've added them in visuals below. The question we're sitting with: how do we cultivate these capacities in ourselves and in the leaders we work with? What's your answer? What do you bring that AI can't? 👇

This is one of so many projects of indigenous stewards caring for the Earth. It holds a special place in my heart and I wanted to share it with you. I’ve always been in love with trees, especially old ones. In this 5-minute video, Inside Kanaka Bar’s Conservation Plan: Protecting Rare Ecosystems & Indigenous Culture, hear from Kanaka community members as they discuss their vision and the ecological and cultural significance of this protected area initiative. This project is on the west coast of Canada in British Columbia. What projects that care for the Earth do you hold close to your heart?

I thought I’d share our excitement with this amazing community. We’ll be hosting our first IDG Intro Session via LinkedIn Live on March 27. It’s a short 45-minute session where we’ll introduce the Inner Development Goals, share who we are, and what we hope to cultivate through the community. Our hope is to raise awareness and connect with more like-minded individuals who feel called to this work. Despite the excitement, we’re also feeling a few butterflies in our stomachs 🙂 It would be lovely to have you join us, or help spread the word to anyone who might find this conversation meaningful. https://shorturl.at/TGxJV Thank you! 💌 Amy

👋 Hello Community, In our second Discernment Skill Builder yesterday we explored the question "How do I discern what I believe to be true?" The conversation was rich — from checking emotional responses and recognizing bias, to the role of trusted community and relational intelligence. One thread that stayed with us: discernment isn't a solo act. Human connection, as Barry put it, is what helps us truly flourish and find our ground. Thanks to everyone who joined! Coming up next week — two events: 1. 🧠💛 Mind, Heart & AI Skill Builder 📅 [March 17th] | 🕐 [12.30] CET We bring Daniel Pink's A Whole New Mind into conversation with AI — and ask what remains irreducibly human, and what that demands of us. This will be a great but intense conversation, given that we have only 30 minutes ;-) *** 1. 🔥 Sales Lab: Resistance vs. Resonance — From Selling Skills to Decoding Signals 📅 [March 18th] | 🕐 [1pm] CET We'll cover: — Why leading with the 23 skills might create resistance (and what to do instead) — How to respond when you hear "prove it", "what's the ROI?", or "we're already doing leadership development" — The linguistic clues that tell you whether a client is actually ready If you're doing IDG work and want to get better at finding the clients who are ready for it, this one's for you. This session is part of our Premium tier in InnerDevelopment@Work — recorded and added to the library for all paid members. 👉 [Join here] | More info in the video below 👇 We hope to see you at one or both evens ! Warmly Sarah & Nadene
