About this episode
As I get older, I continue to see in real time just how many people in “high places” are fumbling clumsily through their lives. So many grown ups in places of power with so much control - spend more of their time pretending to know what they are doing than they spend actually doing anything.
The people who swear they hold the one and only key to existence and you can hear the secrets to life if you agree not not to question a damn thing and to promise to obey blindly and defeat all doubt, those kinds of people? Are not to be trusted. If someone tries to gain power, leverage, or conviction over you, but doesn’t encourage critical or analytical thinking, it’s usually not a great sign.
Your voice is worthy of taking up space and your words are important. Challenge what needs to be challenged when you’re safe to do so. When the world is controlled by villains attempting to drown each other out with their loud ass voices, you never know who may be relieved by the sound of yours.
