Reflections on RBG + BIG Announcement
About the Episode:
Feeling a mix of emotions these past few days? Me too…
I spent my Friday night wiping away tears as I learned of the passing of Supreme Court Justice, Ruth Bader Ginsberg.
On Saturday morning, I woke up even more motivated to share my message and show up in a way that is authentic to me and that aligns with my values.
To channel the spirit of RBG.
She was such an example of a woman who lived a life that aligned with her values. She was not deterred by all of the “shoulds” and all of the expectations that attempted to limit her as a woman. No, she found a way to navigate the “shoulds” and the expectations that were being placed on her.
She found a way to move through and around barriers so that her voice would be heard. And in doing so, she made a difference. A huge difference in the lives of others.
I know many of us are feeling a sense of fear and despair. I want to encourage you to compassionately acknowledge those feelings so that you can allow them to guide you in a way that aligns with your values.
Fear may initially make you feel a sense of restriction and a need to protect yourself and your loved ones.
Despair may make you feel like, “What’s the point? My voice doesn’t matter. Why bother?”.
Lovingly recognize those feelings and reactions. And then dig a little deeper.
I want you to consider…
What is it that I’m afraid of? Why do I feel a sense of despair?
How can I acknowledge my fear and my feelings of despair so that I am not PARALYZED by those emotions.
How can I use the information those feelings hold to make a difference in a way that aligns with my values and speaks from my heart?
I’m sharing a list of things I plan to do at the bottom of this post if you are looking for some inspiration. I would love to hear the ways that you might be inspired to take action.
Wishing you all the best!!
