On the macro- and micro-levels, we fall victim to someone else's agenda when we seek their validation and valuation.
In this episode, I share why as long as we seek to be validated by someone else, we'll fail to witness the genius of our people.
I'll share how the terror attacks in Buffalo and Texas reveal anti-Black and anti-Latine violence as well as how the words of politicians reveal their own anti-people sentiments. I'll even talk about Juneteenth and its similarity to Memorial Day as I argue that external validation has cost us with these holidays, too.
I'd love to here your perspectives on these ideas. You can always email me at drtip@tellemtiptoldyou.com.
