We’ve been leaning into the power of pausing and paying attention this summer. Whether it’s taking a break, using our breath to stay grounded, or trying out new tools, this season is asking us to listen more closely. To ourselves, to each other, and to what wants to emerge.

In a recent podcast episode, we sat down with astrologer, Jocelin Martinez, for a spirited conversation exploring the power and potential of astrology to better understand who we are, what we are, and how what’s happening in the sky can give us direction in our lives on Earth. We were most certainly ruminating on all this as we starred up at that big mountain sky.

Tomorrow is the Enneagram for Entrepreneurs workshop, which has us thinking a lot about the power of the main type that guides BWB - 7 - The Enthusiastic Visionary.

All types have primary motivations, qualities, and characteristics. Here's what BWB's 7 helps us lead with:

• optimism and adventure: exploring new territories and experiences with joy and pleasure

• creativity and practicality: balancing vision with what is possible 

• flexibility and adaptability: seeking options and shifting easily in the face of change

• future-oriented: anticipating and creating exciting futures

In just one week and a day, the Enneagram for Entrepreneurs workshop will make its debut. Unlock new potential for yourself as an entrepreneur and explore your main type(s) in a welcoming and communal environment. Hosted by BWB and led by Enneagram coach, Maren Gauldin, you can be sure to walk away from our time together with new insights that may even stop you in your tracks, and have you asking key questions about your life and work. 

Can you BELIEVE it is already October?! As the season shifts, and the weather begins to change, we are holding questions around what this past year has brought, and how we want to show up for ourselves and each other right now, while deep in the inquiry around future growth and preparing for what 2025 may bring.

Have you ever wanted to take a deep look at that juicy intersection where you and entrepreneurship overlap? Put a microscope right into the soil of that rich terrain that lies at the center of your businesses and careers? Well, good news! We've got just the workshop for you.

This month, we've been having a lot of conversations about how our businesses can go beyond compliance to truly center accessibility in design. This is an evolving area of growth where there is continual room for learning and improvement as new understandings and technologies emerge.

We believe accessibility is our responsibility as creators, and a mandate in business.

June was a HOT month for us (and we don't just mean the temperature)! There is a lot of momentum at BWB and we've had many great conversations with friends, partners, and our contractors as they plan their summer schedules.

Happy June to you! We have been slowly easing into the summer over here. By "slow," I mean slowing down with the intention of reprioritizing and focusing on intentional growth for BWB. Sometimes a break is everything we need to take stock of how to move forward, and how we want to approach/navigate the ebbs and flows of entrepreneurship.
