Town Square calls are live spaces to connect with other purpose-driven entrepreneurs. Check the calendar here for calls. Before You Join - Check the calendar for time, duration, and what the call is about. - Show up on time. It matters. People notice when you're present. - Have your camera on (strongly encouraged). Connection happens when we can see each other, faces, presence, energy. If you need to stay off camera, that's okay, but just know that we invite and welcome presence. During the Call - Be present. Put your phone away. Minimize other windows. Show up as yourself. - Respect everyone's time. If it's a group conversation, don't dominate. Leave space for others to share. - Listen deeply. You're here to know people and be known. That's the value. - Consent matters. If someone asks before recording, be honest about whether you're comfortable. - This is a safe container, honor that. The Vibe - There's no "right" way to participate. Some people talk a lot. Some listen. Both are valuable. - Authenticity over polish. Show up as you are. Messy is real. Real connects. - You're safe here. This is a closed, intentional group of people who chose to be here. After the Call → Give Feedback — Help the facilitator (and us) know what worked. Takes 2 minutes. → Leave a Testimonial — Want to praise someone or share what the call meant to you? Post it here. If a Call Feels Off Facilitation is a skill people are learning. Some sessions will flow beautifully. Some will feel a little wobbly. That's normal. Stick around. Give it grace. You might meet someone who changes your path. One More Thing Bring your curiosity and your whole self. Don't show up as the "entrepreneur" or the "coach" or the "expert", show up as the human. That's who we want to know.

"How do we create environments where people naturally become more connected, more authentic, more collaborative, and more prosperous together?" This question came to me after a chat with @Chris Brandwein. I asked her if she had heard or read the story, "The Gathering of the Tribe." She said no, but when I sent it to her... she said "Ah Charles Eisenstein! Of course!" Questions lead to answers. How do we create a better online community for entrepreneurs supporting entrepreneurs? It's the same question. So how do we? Well... we are figuring it out together by gathering together. P.S. If you haven't heard or read the short story "The Gathering of the Tribe" yet... let me know, glad to share it and send it to you. You can just comment below. Energetically... it's kind of what we're doing. Gathering "aligned" entrepreneurs.
