Small Steps

33 | What “Doing the Work” Can Look Like, Part 2


Listen Later

A solo continuation of last week’s interview with Dr. Tee Williams where I talk more about how I’ve “done the work” with social justice and liberation and my observations around it that. I also talk about things that didn’t get covered in last week’s show that are important to think about or consider when you’re starting to or thinking on how to get involved with social justice or liberation learning.

Small Steps in the Show:

  • Know that the exact path will look different for you and that’s okay
  • Get clear on your values and see where you might need to adjust
  • Take responsibility for your own learning
  • Consider working with Dr Tee if this resonates with you
  • Gut check and critical think as you try small steps the last episode and learn more
  • Remember this is nuanced work, take a breath, take a beat if something’s upsetting you or evoking strong emotions
  • Be open to adjusting
  • Find community
  • Remember to take care of yourself and know you don’t need to solve all the problems RIGHT NOW
  • Curate what’s around you to align with your values
