When you interact with others, are you kind because you want to be liked or because it's the right thing to do? Are you capable of loving someone without expectations? Tonight we dive into what it means to be in a conscious partnership - professional, romantic, platonic, familial, and otherwise. In a conscious partnership, we hold ourselves accountable when we've made a mistake. We apologize for the impact we've made, regardless of our intent. We communicate clearly, we establish boundaries, and while we hold space for other people's healing, we don't roll over when hurt people hurt people. Do I get this right all the time, every time? Of course not, I'm human. Am I working on showing up as my best, most compassionate, most grounded self? Every. Damn. Day.
Our first guests tonight are Michelle and Kenya Jackson-Saulters, the two hearts behind the @outdoorjournaltour and the #WeHiketoHeal movement. Once I profess my deep gratitude to these women for the work they are bringing into the world, we're going to dig into what it means to show up - for ourselves, for each other, and for our communities around us. I've long been a fan of "do no harm, take no shit" and I'm excited to discuss how being strong in our values and clear in our communications is the healthiest way forward in all of our relationships.
