In Search of Safe Brave Spaces: The Beginning of the Journey: A Guide to Unlocking and Releasing Potential
A word from the author...
A few years ago, I found myself in a tough season of my life, both personally and professionally. Returning to a powerful reflection exercise I had used earlier in my life, I discovered a new insight which for me brought a clear focus, renewed energy, and a sense of peace and hope.

I came to see that with this realization, I more fully unlocked my individual potential and helped enable it in others with whom I was in a relationship.
The result is this book. As I shared my early drafts with my friends and family, I quickly discovered stories of other individuals, teams and communities who had discovered similar themes and had begun their own journeys. One dialogue led to another, and suddenly a sense of momentum and possibility emerged. Realizing the power of community and the sharing of stories, we shifted plans for the book launch to begin with an initial ebook supported by formal and informal dialogue circles (to learn more about safe brave circles go to the Safe Brave Spaces website). The ebook includes stories, insights, frameworks and tools for both reflection and application to release potential through enabling safe brave spaces within yourself. It comprises the first two sections of the forthcoming full

I remember firsthand being in important meetings with people that I really respected (and some I feared) and debating if I should say the unpopular thing, the brave thing, the vulnerable thing. I wish I could tell you I always said it; I often did, however, there wasn't always the sacred space where it was safe, and other times I didn't trust that if I jumped I would be able to handle the reaction. I used to think I needed to arrive at being an "assertive person", however Greg shares the journey that we're all on to co-create brave spaces within ourselves, teams and organizations. I wish I had this book 20 years ago...
