This week in the United States, we experienced yet another school shooting in Nashville, Tennessee. 6 people have died as a result. It's upsetting and it's frustrating, but today it caused some reflection within me and helped me to think about who I want to be, how I want to show up, and what I want to do in these situations as they come up.
There is a photo of me that I came across of myself protesting in Washington D.C. where I'm holding up a sign that says "Never Again." There is a fire in my eyes in that photo that I miss dearly, and in today's episode, I explore the what, why, and how behind my political exhaustion-- and how I plan to bring back my spark.
Today's challenge is to do your own reflection-- are you cool with the level of action you're currently taking? Are you satisfied with your level of involvement? Take some time to breathe and reflect, and then let's take some action.
I hope you enjoy this side of me, I don't always get political on Life in Bold, but I hope you find some meaning in this episode. If you do, it always means the world when folks share feedback directly with me or on social media.
If you would like to hear more of me, follow Life in Bold wherever you're listening! We've got new episodes coming out every other Monday.
