I have spent most of my life thinking that hope was having a desire for something to happen. I hope this happens, or I hope that happens. When Covid descended on all of us five years ago, I started getting asked to visit organizations that were struggling with hope from many directions. As I began to gather information to help myself and others understand more about hope and how to tap it more effectively, I saw that there are three distinctly different kinds of hope, each with their own research, definitions and practices. All three kinds understood and active in both ancient and modern times. And that some kinds of hope are more useful in situations that other kinds of hope. Here's a short description, offered in the hope:) you'll reflect for a moment on what kinds of hope are your "go-to" hope practice and which kinds are less used and may be useful to amplify in your life.

Your Core Gift, the primary path of your life, is embedded with three portals woven into the path that continually show up, split off for focus, and then converge back onto the main path. As the three portals converse with each other, you gain deep insight into the next wise movements along your way. The portals act both as Wayfinder’s along your main path and as invitational openings into understanding the depth of your unique credentials for thriving and bringing your gifts to the world around you.

The first portal offers the seeds of your belief in yourself. Not only internal feelings of self-worth but the certainty that you belong to the life that is around you. You are enough and do not have to earn your belonging. You arrived with it.

The second portal offers an invitation to healing the wounds from life challenges. Recognizing that your gift was and is seeded in significant obstacles, each giving of the gift—the healing salve to the challenge—strengthens the gift and increases your courage to keep giving it .

The third portal offers creative insight into new ways to give your gift. It wants you to roll up your sleeves and adventure forward, knowing there are many ways you can give your gift that will strengthen and celebrate both you and your community.

Gather with us for the next Core Gift Facilitator learning event. You’ll discover your own Core Gift and learn the Five-Step conversational process to help others discover theirs.
Whether you are involved in helping professions, social justice or earth-based action, working with young or old, this can be very helpful to you and others in both immediate and future walking of the path.
