Host reflects on songs about home and explores how Tuesdays focus on community-building, inviting viewers to consider whether their language about their groups welcomes newcomers or stays an inward-facing inside clique.
Edward Sharp and the Magnetic Zeros bringing us in this morning. How are you doing, my friend? Speak Wonder.
You know, I typed Tuesday into my Spotify first, and there was not a lot of Tuesday songs. Normally they're like, hey, love is. Love's like a Tuesday. Meaning it's like my love is like all the normal times, not just the special times.
There's lots of songs called Home. I feel like we all have a song inside of us about home. Maybe Cadre is one of those homes. Home is a powerful place, whether it's real or not.
On Tuesdays, we talk about creating community and fostering that for. ourselves, for others, for the work that we do. I invite you today to think about how you invite other people into your home. Do you speak about your home in ways that only you understand or that people who are already a part of it?
How are we, Cadre? Hi, Jen. How are you doing, my friend? Speak Wonder. Nice to see you, my friend. Edward Sharp and the Magnetic Zeros bringing us in this morning. You know, I typed Tuesday into my Spotify first, and there was not a lot of Tuesday songs. There's a couple pretty ones. Normally they're like, hey, love is. Love's like a Tuesday. Meaning it's like my love is like all the normal times, not just the special times. As if Tuesday is not special, but, hey, I'm here with you, and that makes it special.
Jules, Speak Wonder, Jen, all y' all who are walking on in Bs of it's nice to see you too. So, so great. So Home by Edward Sharp and the Magnetic Zeros. If you look up Home as a song title, there's lots of songs called Home. You know, I'm a musical theater guy. I can think of four songs from four different musicals, all named Home. From the Wiz, from Wonderland, from Beauty and the Beast, from Beetlejuice. All these shows have a song where the main character sings about home. I feel like we all have a song inside of us about home.
If we've had good, safe, positive homes, maybe the song is about. About them, about that home. If we haven't had a good, positive home, maybe the song is about the home in our head or about the idea of home. But home is a powerful place, whether it's real or not, for every being on this planet. Maybe Cadre is one of those homes. Right? I purposely didn't jump right into what I say every single day. And that's, we hope that you're doing great, but if you're not doing great, that's okay too. Maybe that's part of your home formula.
On Tuesdays, we talk about creating community and fostering that for. For ourselves, for others, for the work that we do. And I always talk about this idea of the outward facing click. The outward facing click, meaning the longer that you're part of something, the less it's about you and the more that it's about everybody else. If it's important for you to grow home or grow the community or grow your Cadre, which means special group of people with a special intention, I invite you today to think about how you invite other people into your home.
Do you speak about your home in. In ways that only you understand or that people who are already a part of it, or do you speak about it in a way that someone who's never been there before can. Can dive in, can understand, can pick it up can. Can have that home be their home. Yesterday I was within a group of people that has created home with one another. And there is at one, one point that stuck out where they referenced something that I didn't understand. It was. It was an inside. It was an insight.
It was. It wasn't a joke, but they referenced something that, that feel. Felt like kind of like an inside joke or like something that, that. That they'd experienced together. And by they, I mean those who understood it. There was other people in the room who didn't understand it, and I was one of those. They were speaking about their home and in doing so made the rest of us be on the outside of it for a millisecond. But it shows how easy it is for us to get wrapped into our perspective of home and often in doing so, to make other people feel the complete opposite.
So if you are building a home, whether it be one on one or one on many, and by home, I mean business or movement or idea, um, whatever that, whatever that thing that community that you're creating is. You know, as SP Quander says here, if you're building a blanket for it, make sure that there is a doorway, a doorway that is open for other people to, to crawl into if it's important for you, for other people to feel that space and that sense of home as well. Yesterday, here in the Cadre sphere, if you scroll back a.
A live stream, it'll still be popping up there as, as recent live stream. You'll see me and Pete Bramble camp from TPI Hospitality. Are there any TPI Hospitality people on the live stream this morning? If so, say howdy. Howdy. Say hello. Pete is the chief human Resource officer. Turn my heater off. It's getting warm in here. Pete. Pete is the guy who runs human resources for tpi, which is a company that's been named awesome Place to Work many times by many people for many years. And, you know, Pete shared some ways in which TPI does this, and some of them are like, we always seek to understand.
Our focus is on caring about our people and empowering our people to take care of our people. Walking into our. Our hotels and our resorts and our properties. And it resonates with me. What Pete's doing is Pete's considering who is. Who is home and who gets to make that home their own. So if you got a little bit of time, listen to that conversation with me and Pete yesterday, because it was divine. Yeah. Home is one of those things that once you feel it sticks with you, you write songs about Never ever goes away.
Here's Philip Phillips singing. Philip Phillips, Home. We started with the word sharp and the magnetic zero's home, but you could listen to a million songs called home. Not even like, bring him home or you're my home, but literally just home. Four letters. There's many, many of them. It says, there must be something special there. Cadre, you are one of my homes. Thank you for that. Who needs an open doorway created by you into this Cadre sphere? Figure it out and invite them to come on home. We'll talk to you later.
