Enoughness 101

Well, hey there, Cadre. How are we doing on this Saturday? I hope you're good. And even if you're not, that is. That is just fine as well. On Saturday here at Cadre, we talk about personal growth, personal development, personal realities. If we balance that with Mondays, where we talk about maybe professional growth or professional development, professional realities, those two things go hand in hand, right? You walk into your professional world and you go, okay, I need to. I need to figure out what I'm doing professionally.

But then you leave your professional world and maybe you go home or you go to the cabin or you go to the weekend and you go, okay, turn it off. Rest, recover. There's a whole another you. Hey, Christine. Hey, Kristen. Good morning. Hey, timeout, JC. Coming up in about 90 minutes. There's a new Cadre contributor and their name is Kristen Grimes. And Kristen just said good morning, with six g's at the end of good morning, Kristen resides just outside of Denver, Colorado. And Kristen, why don't you, if you have a moment, type into chat what your livestream is all about.

And then everybody, if you're around in about 90 minutes or so, please jump back into the Cadre sphere. And I can't tell you how excited I am to have Kristen. Kristen is a near and dear friend of mine, wonderfully lensed human with fire and clarity and love, a registered dietitian who is a voice in this world saying, hey, there's a lot of people trying to say, here's this black and white line on how you're supposed to look at everything, and it's so simple. So just do it the right way, and the world is as clear as mud.

So if you're looking at the world going, there isn't a clear line in my world, Kristen is going to help you navigate your reality with a little bit of grace, a little bit of love, and help you navigate that. So, Kristen, why don't you, if you have a moment, type in a chat, what time with you in the Cadre sphere is going to be like. As I was saying, personal development day here on Saturday is really your opportunity to go, hey, because you leave your work world doesn't mean that you naturally click into going, oh, and now the rest of my life is going to figure itself out.

And actually, y'all, if you don't spend time working on yourself, yourself doesn't naturally figure itself out. And I know that some of y'all are going, mm hmm. Yep, I've been figuring that out. So personal growth, personal development right here. So on Saturdays, I'm JC. If we've never shared space and time together before, thank you for the opportunity to allow me to spend some time with you. It is a gift to spend time with you. If that makes you uncomfortable, I don't care. I'm gonna keep reminding you that it is a gift to spend time with you, so deal with it.

I talk about this idea of enoughness. Enoughness is the practice of affirming that you are already, in this moment, enough. You are capable, in this moment, of doing something that is incredibly powerful and incredibly potent. You can do something right now that can change your existence, and I would even risk to say incredibly capable of changing the world and the people around you. So there's four kind of knobs to the calibration reality of enoughness. Those four knobs are your words are enough.

So your honesty, number two, your thoughts are enough. That is your. Your curiosity. Number three, your feelings are enough. That is your intuition. And lastly, you are enough. And that is your presence. Today, I want to take a moment and talk about those middle two, your curiosity and your intuition. Culture, the world in which we live really likes to try to convince you that the things you think and the things you feel really don't have as much value as they do. How often do you think something and you go, eh?

Or you feel something and you go, and by eh, I mean you go, that's just me. Or, that's just a thought. Or that's just a feeling. What if that thought is your wonderful mechanism of being? Your body, your brain, your life, your soul, your all that you are going, sending out a message saying, hey, all that you are is sending out this message saying, here is a thought. Here is a feeling. We have computed that. Here is your reaction. Maybe listen to that. There's a lot of science and research that says you have a nervous system.

You have senses that are taking input and then putting output back into the world. Like, there is dinosaur danger. Run. Wait. No. Herbivore. Dinosaur. Okay. Fire. Kristen is going to be talking about.
