Collaboration Global
Working together to achieve more. Together we are stronger. Join us at a meeting https://bit.ly/bookameeting22
If you are a regular to our live sessions you will know that EVERY month at Collaboration Global is a month of LOVE!
I hope this letter finds you well - I've been absolutely dreadful (thanks for asking) and it would seem many of you have too.?
I have my own theory about this.??I blame the pandemic, (again!) for allowing our immune system to take a rest as we all sheltered away from viruses. Then getting back to the hugs and handshaking and we all succumb to a plethora of disease.? Add to that allergies and intolerances seem rife and we have a melting pot of people struggling to feel well, despite eating fresh, home cooked food and following all the good advice around exercise and mindfulness. Over the course of several months I have had everything these bugs can throw at me.? Finally, I found myself quite tearful when I had to admit I had run out of steam and?couldn't make last months Collaboration Global session ??
I was devastated!
But, the cavalry arrived in the form of Gina Gardiner, Alan Brown and Alessandro Ferullo, who did what any good Collaborator Pro would do and stepped up.? I was so proud watching back the recording of the session, they did a grand job.? Proving my point in my book ?? (pic above) that Together We Can Do Something Wonderful.

By the way, are any of you gluten intolerant? I'm looking to see if this might be a contributory factor to my problems and after only a week I am missing bread badly (but feeling sooo much better)?- do you know of a good bread substitute?
Do you know how to win an argument?
This month at our Members Meeting we had a fascinating conversation about dealing with arguments.
It sprang from an old video (click the link below for a 4 minute watch) and it fascinated me because of how we view right and wrong, principles that must be upheld, values that were sacrosanct and just people that annoy us.?
Can I just say for the record that 'winning an argument' does not actually create a positive outcome. It means someone has 'lost'.? If we go into a disagreement with an attitude of winning then we lose an opportunity to learn for ourselves and to help another see our viewpoint. The minute we choose to 'prove them wrong' is when we close down lines of communication.
Our conversation at our CoGlo session highlighted how we feel a need to 'love them more' if they do not see our viewpoint and to 'kill them with kindness'.? As member?Phil Agrios reminded us - 'no one is deliberately being evil'.? We need to find the context from which they live their lives and see how their opinions were formed in order to support them to see a new way. In the hope that they too will do the same for us.
Let me know how you 'win' an argument and what you think of the video too.
Meet Nikki Finucan our newest member and founder of The Change Tribe
I am so excited to? welcome Nikki to our Collaboration Global?community, we seem to be related from another lifetime, I feel like I have known her for ever.?

This is a ground breaking podcast episode - quite literally!
I was delighted to interview Jim Gale founder of Food Forest Abundance and get a guided tour of his original project in Florida. If you like gardening this will inspire you and if you have yet to pick up a spade this will urge you on.? Listen to his passion and enthusiasm on the podcast but better still watch the video and see what he means as he shares his edible garden with us.?
With his projects growing all over the world, this will fill your heart with joy for what is possible on our planet.?
