Start With the Feeling.

I know what I want people to feel before I know what the plan is.

Months before the last event I helped build, I could already see the ending.

The final moment.
A young staff member.
A worship song.
A room of 300 people who had just walked through the inner world of the girls this organization serves — their journals, their voices, their faces reflected across a 60-foot long mirror wall.

I had tears in my eyes and nothing had happened yet.

That’s where it starts.

Not passive.
Not fantasy.

A vision so specific and alive that you’re already inside the moment before a single chair is set up.

That’s the plan.

Everything else is figuring out how to build toward it.

What do you want people to feel?

Start there.
