Ep #159 - In this solo episode of Empowering Chats which I have entitled, Empowered and Reckless Love, I question what it means to have low esteem and how we can find our way to empowerment by recklessly exploring the love we carry inside of ourselves. I think it’s about emptying out all the love we carry inside so that we can be filled again with love. While preparing for this episode I leaned into the Rumi poem, “Love is Reckless, Not Reason.”  And my book Live An Empowered Life, a 30-Day Journey, can be a good resource to help you fill your well of goodness with that empowered and reckless love.

The Rumi Poem – Love is Reckless Not Reason

Reason seeks profit. 

Love comes on strong, consuming herself, unabashed. 

Yet in the midst of suffering, 

Love proceeds like a millstone, 

Hard surfaced and straight forward. 

Having dies to self-interest,

she risks everything and asks for nothing.

Love gambles away every gift God bestows.
