"Perfectionism says you must move forward at all times. Wisdom says sometimes you pause, reflect, and breathe."

"If you want to feel good, start with self-love and self-acceptance. And always remember that you can't get to that destination if the road you're taking is filled with self-criticism and self-attack."
~ Marc David

"If we don't learn to trust our own body, we will always feel awkward, anxious and easily disturbed. Your body deserves your trust, and you deserve the peace of mind that comes with it."

🧠 Did you know? 🌟 Studies show that if we're not mindful, about 95% of our behaviors come from the subconscious programming we acquired in the first six years of life! 🤯 This means our lives are essentially a printout of our subconscious mind. 🖨️

It's crucial to remember that the subconscious doesn’t evaluate or censor self-limiting beliefs. Its job is to ensure our life reflects our acquired beliefs. Only our conscious mind can operate in a self-reflective mode, bringing awareness to our acquired programming so we can change it. 🧩✨

However, if the conscious mind is preoccupied, automated behaviors and acquired responses in our subconscious mind will run the show. 🚀

Take a moment today to reflect and bring awareness to your thoughts and actions. You have the power to change your programming! 💪🧠

I absolutely love reading Roxane Gay’s work, and getting to talk to her about that work is an absolute (and often uncomfortable) joy.

In this conversation we discuss her long-form essay on Black gun ownership including how the gun industry frames women as victims in waiting and the importance of dismantling the trope of the “good man with a gun.” We also delve into the societal cost of our resisting, rejecting, and resenting nuance and the importance of holding the tension of competing ideas.
