Build The Community You Seek
I’m a nobody in this city. I’m just a random face in the crowd. I’m not wanted everywhere, but I have a place somewhere.
You won’t find me invited to many exclusive events in Indianapolis, instead you’ll find my heart and my community stretched across eight countries and three different continents. Which is pretty amazing.
I’m not anyone special, but I wanted to create something special.
It gets lonely here in Indy sometimes, and I don’t say this for sympathy or attention. 𝗜 𝘀𝗮𝘆 𝘁𝗵𝗶𝘀 𝗶𝗻 𝗵𝗼𝗽𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗳 𝗯𝗲𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗮𝗻 𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗿𝗮𝗴𝗲𝗺𝗲𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘆𝗼𝘂. 𝘠𝘰𝘶 𝘤𝘢𝘯 𝘤𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘵𝘦 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘤𝘰𝘮𝘮𝘶𝘯𝘪𝘵𝘺 𝘺𝘰𝘶 𝘯𝘦𝘦𝘥, the community you’ve longed for, a community where you feel you belong. and it doesn’t have to be within your town or city limits.
Isn’t that empowering to think about?
You get to start whatever movement or community you crave. Whether that’s coffee Wednesdays at your house with a few girlfriends, a monthly get together at your favorite new restaurant with other business owners in your area, an intimate potluck dinner every other Saturday, etc.
My point?
Don’t wait for someone else, the movement starts with you.
If a sense of community is important to you, like it is to me, I encourage you to start putting together an event that sounds fun to you.
This month. Not 6 months from now, but soon.
Once you organize your first one, it will get easier! You’ve got this. Community is honestly more important now than ever. I’m so glad I was able to find my tribe five years ago.
