JC explores the concept of enoughness through nostalgic TV references and personal development prompts, inviting listeners to embrace their presence, curiosity, feelings and words as valid parts of who they are and to play with that mindset.
JC: On Saturdays, we talk about the idea of enoughness. A new TV show called High Potential has that same type of feel. JC: No matter how you're doing, no matter what you bring to the table, you always make someone else's day better.
So my invitation for you today is to let it feel like a Saturday, a weekend, a day where you get to play. Pick path A or path B. Go back to your fifth grade self. Starting up next week, I'm going to be interviewing contributors right here in a live stream type of format.
Hey. Hey, Cadre. How are you today? It is Saturday, November 16th, and I hope you're good. Can anyone name this TV show? Mile High Crna, how are you? A little music to play us in to this live Stream. Jewels, good morning, 864. Nice to see y'all. Can anyone name that TV show? Can anyone name that? Well, the theme song for a TV show that was the theme song to Greatest American Hero starring William Cat. The theme song, Believe it or not. I love that theme song. It's. It's one of those theme songs to, you know, one of those.
You almost kind of like a MacGyver type of show, you know that? Yes. I knew someone was, was feverishly typing fast. It's like, oh, I know it, I know it, I know it. But one of those TV shows where a normal person ends up becoming a superheroish type of figure. Within the modern day challenges, there's something really, really, I think, cup filling. So child of the 80s in the way that I'm the one millennial with six older siblings. So I'm the one millennial, six Gen X siblings, a baby boomer mother, and a greatest generation father.
So even though I was born in 1982, technically should have grown up in the 90s, I definitely, definitely am a surrogate child of the 80s. There's a new TV show called High Potential which has that same type of feel, you know, a. A person who all of a sudden finds her way into being a police detective and very much kind of a modern day greatest American hero. Give it a watch. You may be going, oh, I love this conversation. Why are we talking about it? Well, on Saturdays, we talk about personal development.
My name's JC if we've never spent any time or space together before, thank you for the opportunity to do so right now. It is a gift to spend some time in space with you. If that is a news flash to you, I'm glad to be able to share the news with you that you are a gift. No matter how you're doing, no matter what you bring to the table, you always make someone else's day better. That's kind of one of the headlines that we always wave loudly here in the Cadre sphere. It's what we do right. When you spend time with other people, you do what we do right here.
And that is show the world that there are many pathways to being well. I on Saturdays talk about the idea of enoughness. Enoughness is the idea that when you calibrate these little wigglies that we talk about in enoughness you have the capacity to do some pretty remarkable things in the enoughness world we talk about. Your words are enough. That's your honesty. Your feelings are enough. That's your intuition. Your thoughts are enough. That's your curiosity. And you straight up are enough. That's your presence.
I think about William Catt, greatest American hero. I think about MacGyver. In MacGyver, all that they really do is they go, huh, I have an idea. I have a curiosity. I have an intuition. I have a presence me right now that says, what if we do X? Something could happen. That's my quick invitation for you today. What if you bought into the inclination that you had? What if you walked towards the path of the sense that you were sensing what would happen? You know, I'm a big believer in watching how children do what children do.
The way that children play, the way that children think, the way that children feel. There's something there and we lose it. We train it out of us, unfortunately, back to the William Katz of the world and the. And the. I always want to see, say, Neil Patrick Harris. No, that's doogie howser. What's MacGyver's name? Someone help me out. Who played. Who played MacGyver? But those types of characters, what do they do? They follow that childlike energy towards solutions. So my invitation for you today, because it's a Saturday, hopefully you have some.
Some time today to let it feel like a Saturday, a weekend, a day where you get to play. Yeah. Oh, Dean. Oh, gosh. See, we got one step further. Dean. See, now I want to say Dean Patrick Harris, Doogie Howser's cousin. Oh, my gosh, Dean. I'll look it up in a second. I'll look it up. While we're chatting, everybody, MacGyver. MacGyver was played by Richard Dean Anderson. Oh, we wouldn't have gotten it because I was leading with Dean. Yes, Richard Dean Anderson. So as we think, where is that little energy inside of you?
That playful energy, that energy that makes you go, what if. Here's your opportunity today? Because I'll tell you, quite often, we teach our kids how to do one thing up until about fifth grade. And then I feel like we start to unteach them, that we teach them how to be creative and playful. We teach them how to listen to one another. We teach them how to emote and how to express and how to do things wrong and how to make messes. And then we start saying, as they get into middle school, okay, don't do any of that anymore.
Fall in line. Pick path A or path B. Don't try to find another path today. Go back to your fifth grade self. That's the invitation. And all of a sudden I think you start seeing that there's a lot more pathways to being enough than maybe what we are inviting ourselves and others to find today, y'all. You're gonna see some wonderful other opportunities to connect in the Cadre sphere throughout the weekend and then as always when we jump back in on Monday, live streams galore. Pre recorded content galore.
Community feed. A nice way for you to engage whenever you like. And starting up this next week, I'm going to be interviewing contributors right here in a live stream type of format. So if you have any questions that you'd like to ask other contributors, shoot me a message because you're going to be seeing all the friendly faces from our contributor pool right here through live streams, y'all. We'll let Richard Dean Anderson play us out with some MacGyver theme song as we send you into your Saturday.
Y'all have a good one.
