COT

We actually started prior to the beatdown with some vulnerable conversation. For the QiC this was around feelings of angry self critical talk on the drive there, and some tears in the car before having to “get it together” to lead a workout. The contrast of being able to do hard things during workouts but struggling and numbing out when trying to do hard things at home.

Praise for Chumbawumba’s mom doing well.

Door Dash continued prayers for hearts to open for difficult conversations.

We had some fruitful conversation over dinner at Jack’s. Grateful for the men of F3 and the encouragement and sharing of different perspectives on various life challenges.
