Hey Christelle!

Over the last two weeks, we’ve been exploring your current goal or challenge as an expedition - something you don’t walk through alone.

You’ve pictured the people you’d thank at the end of your journey - for me: the map-drawer, the guide, the steady companion.

You’ve noticed who’s already beside you today – for me: friends, colleagues, mentors, resources.

 

Now we shift into a gentle, creative moment:

Who else might you want on your expedition team, to help you move forward?

Not choosing yet.

Not committing.

Just imagining possibilities - the way an explorer considers which companions, guides, and experts would make the journey easier, clearer, or more meaningful.

 

When I did this for my own goal of expanding my Coaching-Infused Conversations, a few ideas surfaced quickly.

I realized I might want:

  • a workshop design expert who knows how to craft conversations that land deeply
  • training that elevates my facilitation skills
  • and, surprisingly, AI as an unexpected guide - a way to explore structure, voice, and flow in a way that still feels like me

Not decisions.

Just possibilities.

And each one opened a little more space - like seeing new faces gather around the campfire before a journey.

 

This is what today’s reflection is about…

🌄 A Coaching-Infused Reflection

If your goal is an expedition… who else could join your team to help you move forward?

 

One of my clients - let’s call her Aisha - experienced this beautifully.

She wanted to grow her visibility at work but felt unsure where to start.

When she considered her “expedition team,” three potential allies came to mind:

  • A former manager who had always seen her potential
  • A thoughtful colleague who asked the right questions
  • A peer in another department who understood the politics she struggled with

None of them were new.

But seeing them as possible team members shifted everything.

She told me later:

“Once I imagined who could walk with me, the journey felt less overwhelming - and more real.”

 

So today, here’s your gentle invitation:

🌿 Who could help you move closer to your goal - even quietly?

🌿 Who has insight, experience, or steadiness you might need?

🌿 What roles might be missing in your current team?

a guide?

a sounding board?

a challenger?

an encourager?

🌿 And who comes to mind - even if you’re not sure yet how they fit?

 

Let this be imaginative, playful, and light.

Not a task - a possibility.

🥾 What’s ONE small action you’ll take after this reflection?

Choose something tiny, something that brings this idea into the real world:

  • Write down three potential people you might want on your expedition team
  • Circle one who feels like a natural next connection
  • Capture one insight about the roles you need
  • Share your list with someone you trust

Just one.

Enough to open the next door.
