46 - When Being WOKE Looks a Lot Like Elitism


Listen Later

Are we really woke or awakened or pretending? Are we using it as a weapon to judge others? Believe me when I say that there are many arenas in this world where elitism shows up. And I've been there. I've been the one being judged and I have been the one doing the judging. Most of the time it comes from a good place, but when your ego becomes involved, you have to be careful.

In this episode, we take a look at what it means to be "woke" and how our newly found passion can come across as elitist to others. In true Be You Podcast fashion, I'm using myself as an example because, like I said, I've been judgmental and have used my awakened state as a weapon to condemn others. I know by listening to this episode, you will think of someone in your life. You might even think of yourself. But listen on to find out how you can spot the signs, acknowledge the good, and be the change.
