Moving Forward Through Fear

Speaking about the need for change is scary. In this episode, I talk about the feelings of fear we inevitably feel when we're about to stand up and speak out when something is wrong. That fear is completely normal, and it's an unavoidable part of advocating for change. Join me as I share how I navigate those feelings of fear and uncertainty and move forward with them to show up and continue advocating for spaces where everyone's humanity is seen and respected!
