Thought I would share 20 things that came to my mind this morning while I was sitting on the balcony..... I hope someone is encouraged by one of them. 💛

Not every headline holds the truth so be careful not to let someone else’s narrative become your reality.

Some are sent only to divide. Protect your peace and refuse to play in the chaos they create.

Beware of allies who disappear when the benefits do. Loyalty that depends on GAIN was never loyalty, boo.

Question the speeches made for the spotlight and cherish the quiet power of those who get the work done behind closed doors.

Some of the loudest acts of defense are done in rooms others never see, for people who may never know you stood for them and guess what, that is okay. True advocacy doesn’t need applause. True advocacy doesn’t need applause. True advocacy doesn’t need applause..

Truthfully, you never know who got your back and just never tells you. ✨

Our duty is not just to amplify the voices in the room, but to echo the ones left outside until they can join us.

Here's the thing >> Representation means speaking for those who cannot be present, even when the door is closed to them. Because this may be the only way they get heard and they may never know it.

Even when some voices are not allowed in the room, I will carry their concerns with me because justice demands every story be heard. That's how you move the needle, make a seat in the room.
