How long does someone need to get Real+Honest? Turns out not that long. We’ve run over 20,000 live video sessions at Pace. It takes ~90 seconds. Most conversations in the world are shallow out of convenience.  “How’s it going?” “Good. How are you?” “Eh, can’t complain.” 🙄 The obvious answer for what we do at Pace: get people to go deeper than that, but make sure they don’t take too long. Simple, right? 😬 We tested 10’s of different prompts, time durations, questions, and models for how to make Check In effective. The Pace Method is the result: https://lnkd.in/g7QVpEbv We built a visual timer in session that softly plays the member off and then we ask them to pass it on to the next member. We make them responsible. It turns out that after roughly 90 seconds of talking, almost everyone runs out of small talk and needs to say something Real+Honest. We define Real+honest as: https://lnkd.in/gn3eeT_F That’s why the Pace Check In is two minutes. To try to get past that point for each and every member, without taking up all of session.

My life mission is to bring a sense of awe to the ordinary. To elevate oneself and others to a higher potential. Especially those who've settled for a life beneath their truest expression.

Yes, Jack Chou 👏🏽 After facilitating 150+ sessions at Pace I can attest that these 2 words Real+Honest are amazing at getting straight to the heart! When this becomes the expectation, 2 minutes can open the doorway to emotional connection, trust, and intimacy in profound ways. Grateful to have been on this journey with Pace and these beautiful souls whom I've learned tremendously from one Real+True at a time.
