A Conversation with Carmen Leilani De Jesus
"Accessing Desire to Energize Work"
Carmen Leilani De Jesus, from the School of Consent, joined us for a conversation about how she uses the Wheel of Consent framework to discern what she is "willing to," or "wants to" do related to work, and how getting clear on our desires can help liberate creativity and energy.
We also explored how that relates to our business models, and how work can be a co-creative and consensual experience.
Juicy resources for you!
Carmen and I shared lots of resources, so below I'm sharing a lovely list of links for you to explore.
Enjoy!
