What We Learned

1. Passion is not enough.

Liz realized that she had been talking about doing something for so long and actually needed to start doing something. Talking about doing something or saying how much you care about it is not enough. You have to do something.

2. You overcome a mentality by meeting people where they're at.

Liz knew that there were things that her and the Ugandan people disagreed about, but she chose to focus on what they agreed on. She met people where they were at and didn't get mad or frustrated for them not being further along.

3. We're all givers and receivers.

When you come from privilege, it is tempting to believe that you only have something to give others, but you can receive as well. That's what Liz has learned while working in Uganda is that sometimes you're the giver and other times your the receiver.
