Recently I have joined a small group of men and women in recovery who are interested in building wealth. I’m in on the ground floor at starting a new virtual meeting titled: DA Building Wealth Spiritually. On one of the first meetings we established a few thoughts to try and craft a great meeting.
Size? Expand the group?
Defining the scope/topic.
Reading?
Weekly?
Format?
Not about investment tips.
Offshoot activities – 1 on 1 or so – (i.e.. the UA action
meeting formats.)
Rotate service/leadership.
Intimate topics – not an open meeting.
Is this a vision group?
Avoid being an “elite” group.
Goals are relative; we do not measure by the absolute.
No judgements.
Lead by Group Conscience.
Share feelings around the topic – part of recovery.
My idea is to suggest two complementary actions – 1. start a weekly special topic meeting in the DA framework open to all and 2. create a pod of 6 people total to meet weekly as a vision/action team. I suggest others may want to do the same and maybe 2 or 3 pods develop out of this seminal group and others form over time. There can be an announcement at the meeting that this is a side benefit/feature and there can be a service commitment (up to 3 months) to be the “Pod Coordinator.”
