Cadre Today and The Outward Facing Clique

Good morning, everybody. How are you? The song has one of the best drops to go ahead and say good morning to. If I was ever a radio dj, this would be the morning theme song, everybody. How are you? Say hey in the chat, everybody. So that's a song called ain't nothing wrong with that. It's a Robert Randolph family band song. I saw him in concert once. Nice. Just. Gosh, we got a crew this morning, y'all. Nice to see the Tuesday crew showing up here in the Cadre sphere. So anyways, Robert Randolph, bandaid Robert Randolph in the family band.

Great concert. So they're all family members, and they all kind of do the same thing in the way that they would do the thing. Here's what I mean. There's a song where all the brothers are jamming, jamming like brothers jam. Then all of a sudden, they start changing instruments and they all switched and the song keeps going. It's different, but it keeps going. They switch instruments again. They switch instruments again, and then they go back to their original instruments and it's like, whoa, wow.

They all have the ability to play in the positions that maybe the outside world would perceive as being incredibly different or incredibly unique or precise in a certain way. Here's what we do on Tuesdays in the Cadre sphere. We talk about that. We talk about people forming relationships with other people and creating opportunity and access and agency to do the things that they can do in this world. And I think the Robert Randolph and family band kind of teach us that there's something really powerful about being able to play within the community that you are in, being able to show up in different ways.

m. central standard time, Betsy Hodges looks at kind of that macro community formation. How do we connect with all these different people on this planet and in doing so, create a vehicle for change? At the top of the afternoon, Doctor Leslie Davis then goes into the one on one relationship. How do we look at things within that micro build to respect ourselves, to go ahead and respect the power of a sustainable relationship that is. That is healthy, that is open, that is honest, all of those things.

Let's zoom out. Even bigger than Tuesday, though. What do we do at Cadre? We create space where you get to play. Maybe you're the bass player. What happens if you sit down at the drum set? I think the world invites us to go, oh, I'm not a sit down at the drum set kind of person. But all of a sudden, sometimes that's where either you're called to or the seat in which you have to sit. So if you want to come into the Cadre sphere and show up the way you always show up, however, that is great. If you want to come into Cadre and ask the question that popped into your head, or show up with a different energy or an emotion or perspective, because that's what you're carrying on that day, guess what?

That is exactly what you have the opportunity to do, and that is the gift that you give to this space, to this community, to this Cadre, a special group of people with a very special intention, y'all. However you show up, there ain't nothing wrong with that. You are always exactly what you need to be to show up here. Think about the people in your world who need that, who need that space, who need to be a part of the family band. Please invite them to join the Cadre sphere. But in the meantime, relish in this opportunity that you have for yourself to say, hmm, what do I need right now?

Where do you find it? Either in a live stream where you can connect in this moment. Maybe the prerecorded content, microwaved live streams, or all of the pre recorded content in the libraries that you can pull up by different topic, by different contributor. And then, of course, the community feed, where in any moment, you can go, hey, world. And the world will say, hey, that's what we're creating, y'all. This world of professionals and peers, fostering a community, creating resources to show you that there are many ways to be.

Well, I hope you have a great day, everybody. Let's drop into ain't nothing wrong with that. One more time. Oh, it's got that slow build, slow build. Boom. Get ready. Is that not a great, like, good morning music drop? The first verse is all about, hey, you can make a lot of different kind of music, like rock and roll or old soul, calypso. Doesn't matter how you dance. Ain't nothing wrong with that. And there ain't nothing wrong with you either, my friend. Be here, be open, and play a little bit today.

We'll talk to you later.
