In our podcast together, we talk about: - What blocks us from creating our own path in life, and how to start living from the soul - The magic of sound, words and music, including the power of language and what we put out into the field - Healing the masculine and feminine within - The connection that the twin have, and whether it is energetically or spiritually unique 

Such an important topic. Retention of teachers is a really crisis facing the profession. Loving the practical strategies offered up here. Will definitely be using in ITE.

Reflecting on one of the most inspiring moments of my career journey — interviewing Miss Opal Lee, affectionately known as the grandmother of Juneteenth. Back in 2016, Miss Opal walked 1,400 miles from Fort Worth, TX to Washington D.C. to plead the case to make Juneteenth a federal holiday. Shortly after the recording of this podcast in 2021, the bill to make Juneteenth a federal holiday was passed by Congress and signed into law by President Biden. To say that Miss Opal is a force to be reckoned with is an understatement. Here are 5 things that I learned from her. 1️⃣ Embrace a perpetual state of growth: Living always in “beta mode” keeps us agile and hungry for new challenges. Don’t forget that growth happens outside your comfort zone. 2️⃣ Surround yourself with believers: The power of a supportive community propels us toward our highest potential. 3️⃣ Change is gradual: Progress is made through consistent, incremental actions rather than one grand gesture. 4️⃣ Own your brilliance: Never allow anyone to dim your light or undermine your confidence. 5️⃣ Kindness triumphs over hate: Nurturing compassion, especially towards oneself, fosters deeper connections and lasting impact. 👀 Fun fact about this podcast: This project holds extra significance for me, particularly amidst the challenges posed by the peak of the COVID-19 pandemic when traditional public transportation use was discouraged. Tasked with maintaining rider engagement in a digital landscape, I proposed the idea of a branded podcast to my VP of Marketing, and with some hesitation, she said “Go for it.” Rather than inundating me with questions about technicalities, she showed unwavering trust in my abilities, empowering me to take the reins. And so I proceeded to write, edit, record, produce, distribute, and build a successful integrated marketing strategy around this limited series that facilitated the outreach of a significant system redesign and fostered a stronger sense of community among transit supporters. ✨ I’ve learned a thing or two about podcasting since and, while there are moments of this episode that make me cringe, I’m incredibly proud of myself for taking the risk. Lately, I’ve been getting the itch to launch another podcast. This time one of my own and re-listening to Miss Opal’s interview might have just given me the courage to “Go for it.” #BelieveInYourself #Inspiration #OpalLee #ProfessionalGrowth
