  • Community, Belonging, and Self-Discovery with David Spinks
    🌟 “Belonging isn’t something you achieve; it’s something you discover within yourself and nurture in the communities around you.” 🌟 This week on the Bountifull Podcast, I sit down with David Spinks, community builder, coach, and author of The Business of Belonging, to explore the intricate interplay of community, belonging, and self-discovery. From his journey of building CMX, a global community of over 20,000 professionals, to stepping back and rediscovering his own “enoughness,” David shares his wisdom on why true belonging starts from within. If you’ve ever struggled with chasing external validation, wondered how to create meaningful connections, or felt the tension between ambition and alignment, this episode offers deeply personal insights and practical lessons for creating a more fulfilling life. For the community managers, facilitators, and builders among you, this episode is a must-listen. David and I unpack what it really means to build thriving communities, starting with the idea that communities are complex, emergent systems—not something to control or predict, but something to nurture. We explore how to create the container for what people are yearning for and how, when done right, community will naturally fill that space. We also discuss the concept of community member fit, the value of running experiments to learn and adapt, and why conscious, intentional leadership is so critical—especially during transitions. Episode Highlights: 🌱 The Journey to Enoughness: David shares his personal struggles with anxiety, burnout, and the constant chase for external success—and how he found a new path. 🌟 What Belonging Really Means: Insights on the difference between fitting in and true belonging, both in personal life and community spaces. 🛠️ Practical Tools for Inner Work: From meditation and coaching to breathwork and nature, David offers practical ways to uncover your own sense of enoughness. 🌍 Building and Nurturing Community: Lessons from leading CMX on how communities thrive when rooted in connection and purpose. 💡 Balancing Ambition and Well-Being: Why aligning your actions with your values creates lasting success and joy.
