The 9 Service Languages | Intensive Session Wrap Up Thoughts

On Sunday, I wrapped up my first small group FULL INTENSIVE workshop that spanned 6+ hours over the course of 2 days. Anyone who has sat through my Intro class knows, The 9 Service Languages is a fucking BIG IDEA! When I first launched my class, I naively believed it could be tackled in a typical 90-minute or 2-hour session. I quickly learned that was impossible and that few platforms (cons, orgs, mtgs) had the ability to hold space for me and attendees to get DEEP in the weeds of WIITWD as it relates to Service. I am PROFOUNDLY HONORED that @S-O-C—the Service Oriented Conference—reached out to me earlier this year to be a part of their inaugural Intensive Program.

Duration | ~ 90m

Target Audience | Beginner-Intermediate-Advanced in Service-Oriented Roles
  • little & BIG Letters
  • anyone in service to a partner, relationship, House, organization, event, or the Community at Large
Description | Service—a cornerstone for many who practice Authority Transfer or engage with the Community—is treated almost as social currency within the Lifestyle or even the tithe we offer our beliefs.  However, while we fully support, embrace, and champion S&M Boundaries, little is ever even whispered about Service Boundaries.  This silence is a detriment to the individuals involved as well as to the overall Community.  Most of us can name at least one person who has sacrificed too much in the name of service and faced serious negative consequences that required months or even years to recover.

Instead of simply preaching service, service, SERVICE, we each need to have honest conversations with ourselves, our partners, and the groups we serve about the Service Boundaries needed to Protect both the Big Letter and little letter Property!

Whether you are a little letter or a BIG letter, serving a partner, a relationship, a Leather House, an organization, event, or the Community at large, join DominaKat—a recovering Service Whore—in exploring what Service Boundaries you may want and need in your Journey.
