Episode Overview
In today's episode, Kate Harris draws inspiration from Paul Revere's historic midnight ride to explore the concept of "wakemaking" leadership. She illustrates how Revere's decisive action—hanging lanterns and riding through the night to spread his warning—created ripples that changed the course of history. Kate challenges listeners to consider their own leadership journey - impactful leadership doesn't require perfect conditions or massive resources, but rather unwavering purpose and the willingness to move when others won't. The episode reminds us that even a small vessel moving with clarity can create waves that transform entire shorelines.
Creative Prompts
- Lighthouse Meditation: Sit quietly for 10 minutes. Envision yourself as a lighthouse—steady, bright, purposeful. Write down who might be watching your light and what trail you're leaving for them.
- Destiny Cards: Write 20 words that define your path on separate cards (e.g., "mentor," "innovator," "healer"). Arrange them in order of what feels most true. Keep only the top 3.
- Wake Walking: Take a 30-minute walk. With each step, ask: "What am I creating that outlasts me?" Record your answers in voice notes. Later, transcribe only the ones that make your heart race.
