Finding The Valkyrie

We women have a voice and we need to use it! Young women now a days are thirsting for female voices that relate to their situations, the problems they're facing. But women who are successful in business, in child rearing or caring, in relationships and mental health, aren't speaking up! In today's podcast, I discusses how important it is for women to begin speaking up. We have women around us that need to know they aren't alone and there are people who got through it who are willing to talk about it.

My struggle with depression has been really intense lately. I've learned coping strategies and ways to work around it over the years. But after a conversation with a good friend, I realized that not everyone has experience with depression. WHAT WHAT? Not everyone is me?

How does it effect a life, relationships with friends and family, etc . . .

My favorite super hero is Wonder Woman. She stands for everything that I want to be, truth, integrity, strength, power, and love.

In today's episode I talk about how the scene of Wonder Woman, Diana Prince, confronts Steve Trevor about going into No Man's Land on the battle front and saving the people of the German city behind the German army. Diana stands when no one else could, taking the bullets, taking the heat, creating space for others to follow her into the fight and eventual victory.

I apply the actions in this scene to what we must do in our lives to be leaders and to live our truth even when it is difficult, unpopular and isolating. We all must lead in our lives, take the heat and create the space for others to follow.

When you are in the gym, literally on the toilet, and the fire alarm goes off . . . what do you do? You get off your butt and get out of the building!

This week's episode I talk about an experience I had at the gym, where the fire alarm went off, but no one got up and moved. Most people sat on the equipment looking around as if they were unsure what to do, or just flat out ignored it.

There are fire alarms going off in your life that have been warning you of impending danger. Have you listened to them? Or have you ignored them, continuing your routine as if nothing was the matter?
