How The Fireside works
Welcome to The Fireside 🔥 Think of this space the way you’d think about a circle of chairs around a campfire. People gather, share stories, ask questions, and sometimes just sit quietly and listen. There’s no pressure here to perform, impress, or have everything figured out. Just thoughtful conversation and a place to slow down for a moment. Here’s how the Fireside works: Fireside Chats: This is the main circle around the fire. Reflections from our Fireside Coffee chats, thoughtful discussions, and open conversations about life. Stories by the Fire: Moments that meant something to you. A memory, a lesson, a small story from your life that might encourage someone else. Sit With This: A question or thought worth pondering. These posts are meant to spark reflection and go deep. (My blog posts land here as well) Small Sparks: Tiny actions or ideas that create small shifts. Simple things that help bring a little more clarity, calm, or intention into life. Fireside Questions: Something on your mind? Bring it to the circle. Sometimes the best conversations start with one honest question. Campfire News: Welcomes, updates about upcoming Fireside Coffee chats, and community announcements. A few simple Fireside guidelines: • Be kind and respectful • Share honestly but without pressure • Listen as much as you speak • Leave the space better than you found it Some people will share often.Others may sit quietly and read for a while before speaking. Both are welcome here. Pull up a chair. The fire’s already going.
Woohooo it’s WILDFIRE tomorrow! 🥳
Looking forward to chatting with you all! :) I so frequently think about something someone said in this group over the course of the weeks that follow.

Change someone's day!
Most opportunities to change someone's day don't arrive as opportunities. They arrive as interruptions. We often imagine meaningful moments arriving in obvious ways like a planned volunteer event, a fundraiser, a big act of generosity. But in real life, many opportunities to help someone show up as inconveniences. A phone call when you're busy. A friend who needs to talk when you're tired. An elderly woman lying in a yard when you're on your way somewhere. A grandchild wanting your attention when you're trying to get something done. The opportunity is disguised as an interruption to your plans. The question becomes: Do we see it as a nuisance, or do we recognize it for what it is?
FIRESIDE CHAT CANCELLED FOR 6/30
Sorry guys. I'm super sick and not going to be much of a host. You're welcome to use the space for your own discussion if you like, I just won't be on. See you all next week for Wildfire chat.
Fireside Chat Reflection 06/16/2026
"Fork in the Road" was a really good topic! Below are just scribble pad notes I made as we were chatting: What if the hardest part about making a choice isn't choosing? What if it's letting go of the alternative? We seem to like to second guess ourselves, that if it's as simple as learning to walk forward without constantly looking back? If you choose, and something goes wrong - you'll think the other road would have been perfect, but it wouldn't have... The other road would've had problems too. One choice is frozen in time. Neither choice is wrong. Every meaningful choice costs something. The right path isn't revealed before the decision - it's revealed by what you do after the decision. Sometimes it's difficult going toward, and difficult staying. Choosing something for a season, with the knowing that you can also choose to go back if needed. Make your choice and build enthusiasm about it. It doesn't have to be permanent. One person (in a marriage) can lead the fork in the road, and it's possible the other may not want to go that way.....but the one that wants waits for the one who's not to be ready... Reframe the way we claim as "we had no choice." We always have choice. Pay attention to your self talk when you're in the moment. Signs of seasons or winds of change, maybe that's all these forks truly are.
