Based on the saying that we all know, and have honestly felt intimately at some point or another, “it’s lonely at the top”. 

So many of my clients that I work with come to me at pretty much the same point... they are good at holding communities together for others, but feel devoid of a community which supports them in all their needs and wants.

Listen, this isolation of revolutionary leaders is a fucking epidemic! It’s also by (white supremacist) design.

The truth is, we go so much further together, and we know this in our culture, yet we are all functioning in a deeply broken place. We focus on ourselves and believe that asking for help makes our achievements less than, and as women and femmes of color we have become hyper-individualized.

 

Today we’re going to talk about:

• Why it feels lonely at the top
• What white supremacy has to do with this
• How our intergenerational trauma is getting in the way of us having deeper support in our leadership

If you listen to no other episode of the podcast, (but like, do, it’s dope, lol!) this is the one to listen to because when revolutionary leaders of color come together, support one another, compare notes… ...we truly are capable of liberating our communities and changing the entire fucking world.
