Into The Wild 142. How to Give Yourself Permission to Offend with Rachel Luna
The last few years have taught us how offended people have become. I don't think that the collective sensitivity is growing, but people are more open and courageous to share, in public, how they feel. Unfortunately, while many more also find comfort in blabbering their thoughts from behind their screen, most don't give a sh*t about two-way dialogue. And that's where our problems fester - when we don't provide space for others to share their opinion without scrutiny.
What Rachel shares with us in this episode is how to stand in your truth fully so that you can be all of you without worrying who you offend because..." Your existence is an offense to someone, so give yourself permission to be offensive in your truth and faith and own all the parts of you. And then, from there, be curious."
If you must claim your ignorance, please start by understanding that you aren't right, nor are they, we have different truths, and that is ok.
After chatting with Rachel, I got all fired up and ready to start doing more and shining my light even brighter - by being a lighthouse - so that I can help light the way for all to see. She helped me better understand that I am supposed to have my feelings and that what I experience, my perspective, is what makes me, me. Your thoughts and actions, well, make you, you. It's a must-listen to episode.
In this episode, you will learn about:
- How to get your team to support you during the toughest times
- We should never dismiss the grieving process
- Why you should never use being offended as a weapon
- Why we shouldn't try to change someone's belief system without giving them space to explain themselves
- There is no such thing as reverse racism
What it means to be a wild woman:
- Freedom to be, whatever being means to you.
