This past May, I was lucky that I got connected with John Saddington and his Yen. It was an absolutely hardcore learning experience. I learned so much about community building from John.
John is a great coach. He is a great entrepreneur who loves to share knowledge and build his business in the open. What amazes me is his builder spirit. As a community builder, he was a good model of how people should interact in a community.
John is an incredible builder. The biggest lesson I learned from him was being vulnerable as a community builder. Be vulnerable as a role model to influence the community. I saw him cry in his vlog the day his daughter got hit by a car. He showed me that it is better to be a close friend than a hero.
Vulnerability and authenticity. I have so much respect for him simply because of the fact that he understands it and applies it to his own community.
appreciate the kind words @kanglelin!
high-fives to you!
Thanks for sharing this - authenticity and vulnerability is what we all crave. Love hearing that John is embodying those things!
definitely! It's not something good to have, but rather crucial in community building
What do you mean by vulnerable?
Share your obstacles, share your roadblocks. Make ur memebrs feel intimate and relatable
@8bit. Thank you for this precious lesson John!
