Greer opens up with a story about a car accident and the driver of the other car apologizing for not seeing her. Often our visibility is not about us not being there or even available to being seen, but the other person's not seeing at all.

Then as Whitnie continues the interviews with the book's authors, the idea of invisibility as a way to protect others and their secrets is broached, along with a discussion about why it's important to step out of our shadows.

In Part 2 of our three-part series with the authors of the book The Fearless Entrepreneurs, Greer and Whitnie discuss the importance of growth as a benefit of moving through fear and taking action before sharing the author's interviews. When we choose, our experiences help change us into versions of ourselves more aligned with who we were created to be. Fear, mental and emotional, is a construct that stands in the way of us being our true selves. The fear may result from past trauma or experiences, but it is not always the case that what we are feeling has any connection to the current environment. The more we step into that truth, the more we can be who we are meant to be.

You've had an idea for a new product or service. You've even thought, "I could create a business out of this." But you haven't. Why not?

In this episode of Life, Lemons & LemonDrops, Greer and Whitnie talk about some of what gets in the way of us taking action on our thoughts and dreams. We share Part 1 of the interviews with some of the contributors to the book "The Fearless Entrepreneurs" by Lynda Sunshine West. 

Lynda spent years of her life afraid, and it wasn't until she decided to be an action taker despite her fears that things started to turn around in her life and set her up for a life as an entrepreneur. The other ladies in this interview have similar stories of moving past their fears to do what they love and make an impact in other people's lives.

If you judge people, you have no time to love them. ~Mother Theresa

In this episode of Life, Lemons & LemonDrops hosts Greer and Whitnie are talking about judging and being judgmental. How can we be less judge-y? "Judgmental" is having or displaying an excessively critical point of view, often borne of the notion that we alone have the answers or the best approach. When others don't conform to how we think they should be or how we would be in their situation, we then are critical of what they do or don't do. 

Two current hot-button issues are the increase in coronavirus cases & the continuing resistance to getting vaccinated and/or wearing a mask; and Simone Biles' withdrawal from the Olympic gymnastics team and all-around competitions. The sisters dissect both issues and our reactions to them.

One of our highest callings is to love one another. When we live in judgment of others, we do so without regard often to what they are going through. That separation is helping to create the divide many are saying permeates American culture. More collectivist cultures, because they are focused on what is best for the community and not the individual, find it easier to live up to the model set not only by Mother Theresa but Jesus Christ as well.

Following are a few more quotes to provide food for thought and hopefully some inspiration to be unaffected by others' judgment and to be, yourself, less judgmental and more loving:

"Be curious, not judgmental." ~Walt Whitman

"Never judge someone without knowing the whole story. You may think you understand but you don't." ~Anonymous

"Let them judge you. Let them misunderstand you. Let them gossip about you. Their opinions aren't your problem. You stay kind, committed to love, and free in your authenticity. No matter what they say or do, don't you dare doubt your worth or the beauty of your truth. Just keep on shining like you do." ~Scott Stabile

"People are quick to point out others' faults, but never quick to point out their own." ~Anonymous

In this episode of Life, Lemons & LemonDrops hosts Greer and Whitnie tackle the problem of procrastination. They discuss what it is, why you do it, and how you can move past it. Procrastination is nothing to be ashamed of; it's something we all find ourselves doing from time to time. However, when procrastination prevents you from achieving your goals, you have to get a handle on it and make changes so that you can progress as you desire.

Awareness that procrastination is one of your habits or patterns is the first step. You can begin to use the tools and strategies that are shared to reduce or eliminate the distractions and delays that put off till tomorrow what you can do today. Also, listen to this Ted Talk by Nic Voge, where he discusses the "Self Worth Theory" that may be the root cause of procrastination.
