Be Kind: We have a zero tolerance policy for negativity, bullying, drama, gossip, or toxic energy. Encourage and support your fellow participants. Never make anyone feel unwelcome or judged; treat everyone with love and acceptance. If you disagree or have an opposing viewpoint to share, do it with respect, honor, and from a place of compassion. Spirited debate about ideas or concepts is awesome, personal attacks are not. If you can’t be kind, be quiet.

No Disparaging: This is a no venting zone: about Tracie, April, the Joyous Justice Team, the program, or anyone else, Joyous Justice participant or not. We don’t put anyone down, be it other programs, teachers or people. This applies to issues with other participants as well. Do not create drama by posting “A certain participant did X and I’m so upset” or “Someone in this group did Y, that wasn’t cool.” If you have an issue or grievance — either with the program, or each other, bring it directly to the party you have an issue with. Find resolution. It’s the adult and responsible thing to do.

Be Generous: Give more than you ask. Share what you’re working on, but keep a larger emphasis on sharing support, wisdom, and encouragement. Think 3:1. Give 3X more support, insight, and encouragement than you ask for.

Don’t Promote Your Work or Services: The primary intention of the community is to stay connected to your fellow participants, share ideas, get and give support, and to form genuine connections. It’s not a place to find customers, or recruit people to other programs or groups (even free ones). Be upfront, clear, and honest. Share from a place of learning and helping, and use this community as an educational support system. If you promote yourself or your services, your post will be removed.
