In this episode, I will share the three things that is firing me up right now to really embrace our humanity. These three things make me feel inspired despite all that has been going on in the US and around the world. They get me connected to my own inner inspiration and get activated get into action. They exemplify courage, strength, and vulnerability – what Naked Conversations is really about.
Can we be courageous? Can we dig deep into our own strength? Can we be vulnerable and real and show up as we really are? Can we use our voice to make a difference? Can we express ourselves to have more love and affinity with the people in our lives?
That is what I wish for you. For all of us.
