The Last Few Months: Dating, AI, and Being Human
I've been doing the dating thing of showing up fully in a promising connection and then heading out when things aren't the right match. (I'm divorced from my high school sweetheart and have been learning all things dating over the past two years with fascination.)
In the last three months I went through a doozy of a relationship learning curve that took a lot of attention to sort through. Not quite ready to share more at the moment, but per usual I learned and grew a lot from the experience!
In this same time period the world of technology and AI has been doing what it does, going through an exponential growth curve. Agentic AI, a tool that can achieve high level goals with minimal supervision, has staggering implications. It shifts the entire value proposition of the knowledge worker workforce where most of my clients live.
There's grappling to be done with this across society and industries.
Over here I'm thinking about how work and identity are going to evolve.
I'm also thinking about how we stay well in environments that are changing faster than ever. (Because change is stressful!)
While the world is changing rapidly, our human needs remain pretty constant.
We need connection, friendly faces, and to be around good energy.
We need support and safety so that our nervous systems can relax into peace.
We need compassion for our limits and our failures.
We need places to be seen and know.
We need to have a sense that we matter to those around us. (You do! Probably more than you realize.)
We need time to process our experiences and our emotions.
We need rest and downtime.
We need challenges and things that help us grow.
We need a sense of purpose and contribution to the world.
If you could use some support around finding your way through the current moment we're all living through and the particulars of your life, I'd love for you to join an upcoming event, Clarity Circle, or reach out about 1-1 coaching!
