Team Cadre- What is Cadre?

Well, hey there, Cadre. Happy Tuesday. And happy. What is Cadre? If by now you haven't joined, what is Cadre? From someone from the team Cadre crew, let me tell you what's going on here. So sometime in the central standard time morning, either Colleen or Shannon or Anna or Luke or myself are doing a little exercise and answering the question, hey, what is Cadre and why are we doing this? We're doing this because it keeps us honest. Hey, Colleen. Hey. Speak, wonder Don. How are you? It keeps us honest.

And what I mean by honest is, if Cadre is a outward facing click, in a few hours, you're going to see me come back and speak about the outward facing click, meaning that it's not about what we think this thing is. It's about what the first time attendee thinks this thing is. We need to continue to come here and say, wow, what is Cadre? So every day throughout the weekdays, you're going to see us come here and share a little morsel about what we are working hard to create right here at Cadre. So, as a headline, Cadre is a community of professionals and peers creating resources to show the world that there are many ways to wellness.

Hey, Sarah. Nice to see you. My name is JC Lippold. I'm the director of people, meaning that I spend my time, it is my vocation, my call to look at the world and go, huh? Who are those professionals and peers who can help bring together resources to show the world that there are many ways to wellness? And today I would like to inform you that we are a verb and that we are not a noun. We are an evolution. We are a story that's being written, as opposed to a story that has been wrote. That's a really fancy way of saying that if you maybe have the assumption that we know what Cadre is, I would like to inform you that that is not the case.

Cadre is a system change experiment. We are looking at the world and saying, wow, wellness isn't very well. There are many people I would risk to say, and this is my opinion, but also, I've done a lot of research. Hey, Jackie. Nice to see you, my friend. And by friend, I mean, even though I don't know you, I always love to say people that you don't know yet. The world calls them strangers. I like calling them people you don't know yet. I've done a lot of research that shows that most people don't ever get to experience the idea of wellness.

So what Cadre is attempting to do is to invite more people to experience the idea. Hey, Jules. To allow more people to experience the idea of wellness. The concept of wellness. To be able to pick up and put into their own hands the idea of wellness. To create access, to create agency. Marisa. Hey, friend. So every day we're going, huh? What are we learning? Who are we meeting? What direction are we going? And then, oh, actually we think we should be going this way instead. So with that being said, today is building community day.

And what does that mean? Exactly what we are is exactly what we're attempting to speak about today. People influencing people. If you are ever around other people influencing other people, that is what every live stream is about today. So you're going to see me talking about the outward facing click. So often I think community development fails. Meaning we have missions and visions and values and purpose. And most of the time we don't accomplish those things because all of a sudden something becomes so important that it becomes about us and not about the people we're attempting to serve.

So what do we do? We realize that the more that we're a part of something, the less it becomes about us and the more it becomes about the people that have yet to become a part of it. That's what I'll be talking about later on today. And then doctor Leslie Davis talks about those one on one relationships, the intimate relationships. Quite often you see girls mentorship. Mary and Jill, they talk about mentorship relationships, very specifically relationships with teenage beings. And actually you're going to see less live streams with them over the next few months.

Why? Because they spend the summer months running camps for teenage girls. But guess what? You can find replays of their, of their live streams and other resources by Mary and Jill all throughout the Cadre sphere. So check them out and guess what? You can find resources and resources and resources about community development all throughout the Cadre sphere. The main thing I wanted to come in and talk about this morning on today's what is Cadre? Is that we are not saying Cadre is. What we're saying is we are attempting to start to say, hey, you know what?

Wellness. The idea that people deserve the opportunity to be well, to be cared for, to be seen. Yeah, this is something we've never done very well on this planet. And cadres attempting to do it a little bit better. Why? Because you deserve that. How? With you. So people I don't know yet and people I do. It's been nice spending a couple of minutes with you today and luckily enough, I get to do this again with you. In a couple of hours, so we'll see you later. Have a good one.
