What happens when you sit down for 30 conversations with some of the most thoughtful facilitators on the planet? You start to see patterns. You start to feel shifts. And you begin to realize: facilitation isn’t a technique - it’s a way of being. In this milestone episode, Mentor and Cole turn the mics on themselves to reflect on the journey so far. Together, they revisit the moments that cracked something open, the insights that lingered long after the recording stopped, and the deep themes that showed up across every single interview. You’ll hear stories and lessons about: Why great facilitators are like tuned instruments - able to read a room, feel what’s needed, and not flinch when things get messy. How setting the space (physically, emotionally, energetically) is just as important as what happens in the space. The myth of the "perfect session" and the beauty of designing for seasons, not single events. Reimagining power - not as something to hold, but as something to share. The surprising reason so many amazing space holders don’t even call themselves facilitators. This episode is equal parts celebration and invitation. We’re not just looking back - we’re asking forward.
