All those times I learned of something horrific happening. The story of the moment faded away and I assumed things might be getting better. I told myself people learned, and progress was made. But no progress was made. An opportunity for positive change exists more often than we may realize. And I know that I and other white people can personally make a positive difference. But it means aware of our part in creating inequality and racism. And then we take action and truly stand up for what we care about. This is where I am today…

Do you ever feel that you have unpleasant experiences in your life that are asking you to look at them? But you can’t be bothered because you avoid feeling unpleasant. You’re aiming for awesome, even if you have to force it.
However, there’s a reason you’re prompted to look because, at some point, it will serve you well. Until you take a look and work through the troubling part of your life, you will continue to feel somewhere in the range of blah to awful.

If you’re feeling that you’re standing smack in your own muck, that’s great news! You’re being asked to take action and grow. Things will get better.

First I want to say that I sometimes gossip. If someone hurts my feelings my go-to is complaining about that person to another friend. What I’m learning is that I feel awful when I do that. That constriction are my intuitive feelings coaching me to do something more supportive for myself.
If I want to create my higher vision and ideas then I will need all the assistance I can get. That means getting out of my own way and enabling something better.
When you feel yourself going gossipy just notice how you feel in your gut area/power center/solar plexus chakra. The more you notice how you feel the more you’re training yourself how not to go there the next time. It takes self-awareness to make positive habits stick. The more you take on lighter thoughts and words the more you’ll be creating lighter life experiences. It all comes down to the energy system that we are. Our natural space is to stand in our power as in light and love. When you’re in that space you should feel expansive, confident, lighthearted, and able to let things slide off of you more. When you speak up to another you’ll do so with confidence, kindness, and still be able to get your point across to state your feelings and opinions. This is you taking care of your needs from a position of true strength and power.

One question that just annoys the heck out of me is “so what’s your story”? Said with an emphasis on the word YOUR. I mean how do you even begin to answer that? Please don’t tell me I need to create and be ready with a 30-second elevator speech for that.
The second most annoying question I’ve been asked is “what are your gifts”?

For a while now I’ve been wanting to offer people a positive way of honoring humanity and inspiring. I thought about creating a Museum, perhaps an online version. A museum unlike any other that I’ve been to. It won’t tell the stories of the world’s greatest atrocities but instead exhibit stories of love, generosity, and […]
