How to Be Badassish - Archived Amanda Marcott

In this episode I realize 5 fundamental truths at the exact same time (Thanks Hamilton lyrics!)

☝🏻 #blacklivesmatter✊🏽✊🏾✊🏿 period. Hard stop. To say “all lives matter” means you have no interest in understanding WHY they are so specific. Because either they ALLLLLL really (REALLY really) matter, or you can admit you have some racial bias.

✌🏻 We had damaged our Earth, our country, our neighbors, our breathable air, our drinkable water, our food sources, our ways of survival, and our direct communication and connection to God/Goddess/TheSource itself that the whole effing World was put in a time out.

🤟🏻 Speaking of All Lives Matter, this seems like a great time to point out of all the richest, and most advanced countries in the world…USA is the ONLY one without universal health care, and unlimited testing.

🖖🏻 Normal no longer exists. And millions of small businesses across the globe are proving that every day. They prove you don’t need to be a corporation to live a great life. You don’t need to focus on being a millionaire to be happy. But you can sure as hell make a good dollar by being you.

🖐🏻 I said this at the beginning of the year, and I feel like the mom telling the preschooler to get on their pants for the fifth time. I said “the irony of this time is that we have to be selfless and help each other in order to get through all of this.” We have done the opposite, and in turn we have made everything worse.

Today I go REALLLY deep - like more than ever - as I sign off Season 2. Thing have gotta change man, and the first step is figuring out WHY we don't want it.

When did you give up your passion? Your TRUE passion? Was it when your parents told you you could never make money with it? When you knew you'd never be famous? Or did it slowly die like a lost love? And furthermore, why do we encourage our children not to follow their passion? Even if it's just for fun and they never WANT to be famous? 

I feel like if we allowed more passion for the sheer joy, we would be a lot less miserable as a species.

Since when did Porn become the standard in the way women should look, and what is "sexy"?! 

Today I talk about the different sides of nude photos, how one is empowering and the other feels like a cry for validation.

When exactly in history did sex become taboo? And why are we so incapable of talking about the thing that all of us do, most of us enjoy, and literally is the reason all of mankind exists?!

I don't know, so let's talk about it.

Why do we believe everything that's worth it, needs to be hard? What if everything is supposed to be easy? What if those huge, ginormous, amazing dreams we have really are our calling and we've believed a society that thinks unless it's hard, we don't deserve it? 

And yet...we idolize those that seem to have an effortless life. What if they just stopped believing society?

"Even a goddess must carry a machete from time to time."

I was sent a message in my DMs from a person who said "For someone who says they are spiritual, you sure seem rather angry. Maybe you should meditate more."

To that I say: I'm extremely spiritual...and that's what makes my passion so wonderful.
