124 | Coming Home: Politics, Purpose, and The Ripple Effect


Listen Later

I’m coming to you on the other side of a trip where I had the absolute JOY of facilitating a retreat with my good friend, Kaitlin Cox. This was a rare gift that I didn’t know I needed, and goodness, did it fill my cup!

In today’s episode, I want to talk about coming home: politics, purpose, and the ripple effect. After helping Kaitlin with her retreat and hearing the raw and powerful stories from the women there, I was reminded that every single one of us has gone through ‘something’. We’ve all experienced some kind of trauma or hardship that isn’t visible to the outside world, but there is MAGIC when we come together, and share what’s on our hearts!

I know this to be the ‘ripple effect’, and I’ve seen it play out in beautiful ways in my own life. I’ve chosen to take action and heal in ways I never thought possible; this has radiated to incredible women like Kaitlin, and the work that she’s doing is radiating to the women in HER circle! It may sound a bit cheesy, but if you want to help people and make the world a better place, it starts with YOU. You heal the world by healing yourself, and you change the world by changing yourself.

In this episode, I cover:

  • The inner knowing we have when something isn’t ‘quite right’, and we’re meant to pursue something different
  • Realizing that every single person is carrying something ‘hard’ that the outside world can’t see
  • The power in what is the ‘ripple effect’ + how I’ve seen this play out in my own life
  • Why making the world a better place actually starts with you and your healing
  • Why it’s beautiful + actually normal to not ‘fit in a box’ and fully align with one political party
  • The collective necessity towards practicing genuine empathy + why I KNOW that my purpose is rooted in healing
  • Understanding that while it’s great to evolve, you are already worthy and ‘enough’, just as you are
