The Freedom in Reading


Listen Later

This episode features Verona Willis-Brown as she shares her first and second book "Are You Free Enough." Verona's entire theme of helping others revolves around others evolve into the person that you are authentically created to be. From the first book all the way to all these things I'm doing is to help others evolve into authentic self.  She says, “As you can see my book my second book, came out with the same butterfly effects on the cover.” The whole point of the butterfly is evolvement. And when you evolve, you can't go back. So let's do this. Let me help you evolve into your authentic self and become one with nature.

One key to being free is to become comfortable being you. We are created to be human beings, but we get stuck in being human doings. This occurs when we start doing stuff, and we thinking we're supposed to do this and do that, or accomplish this and that to be successful. But what is happening is we start to compete. Right? We compete with the next person we see on social media. We often want to fit in. But the goal should be to dig deep and find you and be the best version of you?

This is how butterflies are free, beautiful, graceful. They come and go and do as they please. If they stay they come and whisper and then they gone like, Oh, do you see my color? They never stay in one place too long because that's not the point that what is to be free and that is the point for everybody is to be free. You cannot restrain. You're not supposed to restrain us, no matter which way you look at it. Mentally, emotionally, spiritually financially, or sexually. Verona Brown-Willis poses the question which is the title to her book "Are You Free Enough?"

When asked what she would say to others about reading, she says, “I want to encourage someone to read, and you don't have to read my book. You don't have to read a lot of books. You just must read your name. Find your name. Read your name. Reading is not where you turn 500 pages. Reading simple means you look at a word and read that word out. Look at a word and see what word you can find from that one word. That's what reading is. Reading is not intense. It's not rigid.  I try to encourage people every single day, every single day, just by the word.”
