Team Cadre- What is Cadre?

Well, hey there, Cadre. Happy Tuesday. I hope your day is going well. m. Central standard time, where I am, or a lot earlier or a lot later, wherever you are. My name is JC, and I'm a part of team Cadre. I'm a part of the people who, behind the scenes work to bring Cadre to life. I'm the. The director of people. So I spend a lot of time looking at the world and going, who. Who in the world has maybe, maybe a voice and a perspective that could. Could contribute to the voices that share here? So every morning, throughout the week, someone from team Cadre answers the question, what is Cadre?

And for all of you who are signing in right now, nice to see you. If you have any questions about a what is Cadre? Type of question, feel free to ask them or drop a heart. Say good morning, just like steph did. But every day we come in to say, huh, it's important for us to help you understand what Cadre is, because if we're doing our job, we are helping you understand how you can help others understand what this Cadre thing is. Cadre, in the way that I define it, is a special group of people with a special purpose on this planet.

And that special purpose is to show the world that there are many ways to wellness. On Tuesdays, we talk about building community. What do we mean by that? Because you may be like, well, that could mean a lot of things. That's on purpose. Each day our themes are big and broad. Because you are big and broad, you are a pluralistic being. That may sound like, whoa, what does that mean? Pluralistic meaning you exist with many pathways and many understandings, many emotions and many thoughts. You are not one thing.

Thing. You like the weather. Some days you're sunny. Some days you're cloudy. Some days you're a. Some days you're z. Some days you're a million. Some days you're a billion. Some days you make sense, some days you don't. And that is normal. Morning, Jules. Nice to see you. So, building community day. Building community is about people figuring out how to exist amongst one another. So you have someone like me, who, with my outward facing click livestream, talks about big groups of people who have the desire to bring big groups of people together around an idea on how we do that.

And I talk about how when you've been a part of something, the longer you're a part of it, the less it's about you and the more it's about people. Who aren't a part of it yet. You have people like Doctor Leslie who talk about a lot of one on one relationships. You have people like Jill and Mary from girls mentorship who talk about building community from a mentorship standpoint of how you can impact others. There's lots of opportunities on how you can consider how you build relationships. But another thing I want you to consider about this Cadre sphere, this world that you are a part of here, you are a part of it is that there is a community feed.

So a few minutes before I signed on, I dropped one of my favorite quotes in the world into the community feed. So on the bottom of your Cadre app, like right down here, actually, probably like right there, there's a little tab that says community. And you can click on it and you can make posts. I shared a picture of one of my favorite quotes. It's by Edith Wharton. And the quote is something like a candle shares lights shares its light in two ways, from the candle and from the mirror. I love that quote because so often we think that if we're not the candle or that if we are the candle, that we are responsible for doing all of the work in that moment.

But no. Right. We are reflected in those people around us. We are reflected in the impact of our work. We are reflected long after we leave a conversation. We have impact in this world. So when you leave, when you rest, when you stop, your impact lives on. My invitation for you is as soon as you sign off of this live stream. If you have one more minute, go into the community feed and share your favorite quote. Someone just dropped a heart. I'm thinking it was maybe. Hey, Steven. How are you, my friend?

Nice to see you. Hey, everybody. I am so excited to introduce you to my friend, Steven. Steven is going to be bopping into the contributor land pretty soon here, and I cannot wait to introduce you to him. So if you see Stephen bopping in, please say hi. But I'll say this, I promise I commit that if you share a favorite quote or an idea in the community feed today, I'll comment back. I will be the mirror to your candle. Because that's one of the ways that we do this Cadre, this special group of people with a special intention and a special purpose.

So no matter where you are, no matter how you are today, I am here and so are you, y'all. What is Cadre? Cadre is a world where professionals and peers foster community and share resources. Two, create a world where there are many ways to wellness, and in doing so, invite you to see that you are the candle and that you are the mirror. So no matter where you are. Junkie Shannon. Coming in in overtime. Y'all let us do this Cadre thing today. No matter where you are, no matter how you are, you are incredibly.

Enough. We'll see you later. Have a good one.
