Body Doubling Buddies = Rocket Fuel ⚡

6:30am here in New Zealand. Two of my accountability buddies dialling in from the States. And I am telling you, I have never been more glad to be awake before sunrise.

A few weeks back, the three of us made a decision: one of our weekly body doubling sessions would be dedicated to revisiting the six-week program content. Not letting it gather dust. Actually building something we come back to, week after week.

But here is the magic that happened along the way. 𝗪𝗵𝗶𝗹𝗲 𝘄𝗲 𝘄𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝗯𝘂𝗶𝗹𝗱𝗶𝗻𝗴, 𝘄𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗼𝘂𝗴𝗵𝘁: 𝘄𝗵𝘆 𝗻𝗼𝘁 𝗹𝗲𝗮𝗿𝗻 𝘀𝗼𝗺𝗲 𝗻𝗲𝘄 𝘀𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝘁𝗼𝗴𝗲𝘁𝗵𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗼𝗼?

So we did.

Last couple of sessions, we tackled 𝗖𝗮𝗻𝘃𝗮 (one of us is a total pro, the other two of us fumbling with the gizmos and loving it). And this morning? All three of us cracked open 𝗠𝗶𝗿𝗼 for the very first time. An hour and a half later we were up and running, laughing, learning, creating together.

𝗠𝘆 𝗱𝗼𝗽𝗮𝗺𝗶𝗻𝗲 𝗰𝘂𝗽 𝗶𝘀 𝗙𝗨𝗟𝗟. 🥹

Here is what I am reminded of: body doubling is not just about getting the boring stuff done side by side. 𝗜𝘁 𝗶𝘀 𝗮𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗻𝗲𝗰𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻. It is about safety. It is about turning "I should really revisit that content" into "we are doing this together, and it is actually fun."

We have got refreshes and some serious icky guy (Ikigai) wrangling lined up for the coming weeks, and honestly, I cannot wait.

To my buddies across the ocean

thank you, ladies. You have invigorated me for the day. 💛

If you have not found your body doubling people yet, this is your nudge. Reach out. Start small. Pick a time. The right buddies do not just keep you accountable, they light you up.

Who is body doubling in the group? Drop a comment, I would love to hear how it is working for you. 👇
