Hi everyone, Whether you’ve been taking time off in the summer sun or embracing the quiet of winter break, we hope you’ve had a chance to rest, reset, and recharge. As we ease back into rhythm, we have a couple of dates to mark on your calendar: ☕ Casual Hangout — Tuesday, August 25th: A relaxed, informal space to catch up and reconnect after the break. 👉 Click here to RSVP for the Aug 25 Casual Hangout 🚀 Skillbuilders Return — Tuesday, September 8th (we skip Sept 1st) Here is what else is happening in our ID@Work community : 1. Portugal Farm Gathering: "Painting the Walls" & Being Human Together Dates: September 21st – 27th, 2026 Host & Location: Regenerative Farm near Porto, Portugal — hosted by community member @Maria do Céu Bastos The Story: Rather than a structured retreat or formal workshops, this week is all about simply being human together. We’ll be helping Maria on her farm, cooking together, sharing laughs, and helping her prepare for a big Saturday event on regenerative farming that she is hosting. The Invitation: Maria has space for about 5 people to stay overnight in her home (see pics). Whether you live nearby, are traveling through Europe, or want to fly into Porto: - You can join for the full week, pop in for 2–3 days, or come by for a single day. - It’s completely flexible and relaxed—a special chance to plant "heart seeds and brain seeds" for how we want ID@Work to grow together as a community. 👉 How to Join: If you’re interested in coming along or have questions about logistics, drop a comment below ! *** 2. 💬 Community Discussion: Which program changed the game for you? There's also new thread in the community to collect recommendations on learning experiences, workshops, cohorts, or retreats that have had a real, lasting impact on how we work and live.

While in Montreal over the weekend I had the good fortune to meet @Adle Ong in person. We have been in global practitioner calls together for about 3 years and it was easy to spend the afternoon discussing, eating, laughing and eating some more 😁. I learned that Adle - is the top 1% of foodies for TripAdvisor, not surprisingly - launched her consulting and facilitation company 2 years go - has all sorts of interesting projects in the pipeline - Speakes mandarin and is learning cantonese! I love meeting community members and hope to continue to meet with many more!
