FLOW
What if ease isn’t a luxury—but a signal?
In work, in connection, in collaboration—flow often begins not where we try harder, but where we listen better.
To flow is to move with what's already working. To ease into alignment instead of forcing direction.
To notice where the energy already lives—and go there.
Flow doesn’t mean frictionless. But it does mean trusting that momentum builds when we’re in tune with our capacity, our collaborators, and our call.
This month, we ask:
What does ease look like for you right now?
A Few Questions to Reflect On:
Where in your work or relationships are things feeling easy, energizing, or alive?
Where are you trying to push, force, or prove?
What would it look like to move with your strengths this month?
(You can journal on these—or bring them into a conversation, coworking session, or walk with a peer.)
A Practice to Try This Month:
Let flow lead. Try one of these invitations:
Follow the fun: What’s energizing? What’s flowing? Double down there
Share your “flow finder” tool with a peer (music, ritual, rhythm, question)
Ask a collaborator: “What’s been feeling easy for you lately?”
→ Then build from there—together
Flow expands when it’s named.
From the Community Garden:
“Once I stopped trying to do it all, I realized where I was already moving with others. That’s where the real momentum came from.”

Nominate a peer for co:lab’s Collaboration Spotlight → who’s moving with grace + energy?
A Question for You:
Where are you feeling flow in your work—or in relationship?
Tell someone who helped create it. Or nominate them for co:lab’s Collaboration Spotlight.
When we acknowledge ease, we help it ripple. 🌊

Forward this to someone who’s finding their flow, or reply and let me know where the energy is moving for you.
