Trusting Your Voice: The Responsibility of Truth 3.3.2

Season 3: Series 3: Episode 2- Trusting Your Voice: The Responsibility of Truth July 26, 2026 This series explores the art of being through an examination of self: growth, identity, learning, power, and transformation. This is not a trend; it is a lived experience. In today's series, we will explore how to trust your voice, build self-trust, and confront a difficult reality. Humans often say they want the truth until it disrupts comfort, identity, routine, relationships, or ego. Truth sounds noble in theory. But in practice? Truth creates friction. And if you are someone trying to speak honestly, lead authentically, create differently, or evolve publicly, you will eventually discover that trusting your voice is not a motivational slogan. It is a discipline. A responsibility. A daily practice. Many people are not struggling because they lack intelligence. They are struggling because they have been conditioned to distrust themselves. To second-guess. To shrink. To edit. To over-explain. To perform safety instead of practicing integrity. Individuals, including myself, have repeatedly asked for honesty. Just tell me the truth. Be real with me. I want authentic leadership. I want feedback. I want growth. But then the moment of truth arrived: not cruelty, not arrogance, not disrespect; Just honest reflection! Defensiveness entered the room. Because truth is expensive. Truth may require: accountability, grief, identity shifts, humility, behavioral change, or the realization that the life you built no longer fits who you are becoming. Most of the time, it requires all of the above and more. Many individuals want confirmation more than the truth. Confirmation protects identity. Truth transforms it. And transformation is disruptive. Some of the themes covered in this episode are: Critical Reflection It is okay to assess where you are, but assess your motives Watch thinking we know everything Hold space for managing up with leadership Building confidence and follow-through What is keeping you from being successful? Co-Host Biographies: Jasmine A. Green, MAOL., is an inspiring, informative, and passionate advocate for individuals. With her extensive experience in personal development, she shares practical self-care and community engagement strategies that are both effective and accessible. Rhonda A. Lindsay is a servant leader at heart. She is continually seeking ways to enhance effectiveness within our community. She values collaborating with individuals and communities to benefit all participants. Sebrina A. Lindsay-Law, Ed.D., CPDC, is a career student who advocates for learning opportunities, structures, and practices across environments. She believes that everything is a lesson with a chance to grow and improve as an individual.

Not Without Shadows: The Journey of Feeling Fully 3.1.5

Season 3: Series 1: Episode 5- Not Without Shadows: The Journey of Feeling Fully May 24, 2026 This series explores the idea that we embark on a journey to understand that life is not without shadows. Thus, we explore the journey of feeling fully. We often try to push away emotions we dislike, such as anger, grief, shame, and guilt, thinking they are bad or make us feel bad, while only embracing those that feel good. But what if every emotion has value, even the uncomfortable ones? What if feeling, naming, and acknowledging all of them is the path to growth and self-understanding? Today, in Not Without Shadows: Feeling, Naming, and Becoming, we explore how embracing our full emotional spectrum, cultivating curiosity, refraining from judgment, and avoiding avoidance can transform the way we live, relate, and become our most authentic selves. Some of the themes covered in this episode are: How to let go of thoughts, emotions, mistakes, misconceptions, or other elements? Having a plan, but being led by God and your purpose Interrogating thoughts, feelings, and actions Watch taking matters into your own hands The ability to feel is a powerful thing Pivots that yield us to provisions and opportunities Control things and attempt to win on our terms Not being attached to an outcome Co-Host Biographies: Jasmine A.
