A few weeks ago I had the immense pleasure of spending my Sunday morning with a group of women from CrossFit LA. Previously we had a women’s night at the gym where we networked, chatted, ate food and generally enjoyed time with each other. This next event was born out of the women of CFLA brainstorming on what they wanted to see and experience. Two of our students, Carolyn and Kathryn, who are experts in their respective fields, life coaching and adventure racing, did most of the work in creating the event and together, the three of us created a space for the amazing women of CFLA to show up.
And show up they did, indeed!
We had a total of nine women at our Walk & Talk which was the perfect amount for our first foray into this sort of gathering. We met at Will Rogers park and spent a few hours together. The time was filled with a lovely hike led by Kathryn, and a discussion and mental exercises based on how tools we learn in CrossFit can be taken out into the world and our lives, guided by Carolyn and me. At the end, we gathered for a picnic, everyone having brought a dish to contribute.
It proved to be a tremendous opportunity to get to know this group of women better. I was honored by the level of their sharing and grateful to spend the morning with them. And, even better, I now know a little bit more about what each of them wants in life and can do my best to support them in achieving that goal!
