Summary
How can we get over perfectionism to just take action in what we want to do? How can we effectively tell the story around sustainability to keep it inclusive and engaging, so that we can grow the movement more quickly?
Today, host of Conscious Chatter and Co-Founder of Left Edit, Kestrel Jenkins, shares her wisdom with us.
HIGHLIGHTS:
[07:25] Kestrel: “After a couple years, I burnt out… I had to step back and reassess how I was going to work in this space.”
[08:35] Kestrel: “[I wanted my work to be about] bringing more people in… so we can all learn together. I wanted it to have an inclusive approach.”
[10:55] Kestrel: “Often I won’t do things because I want them to be perfect, and it holds me back from actually getting over the hurdle of just starting things.”
[14:15] Kaméa: “Let’s say you wanted to start something new today, and a voice is telling you it’s not good enough. How would you respond?”
[19:00] Kestrel’s thoughts on what we can do to keep conversations around discouraging issues engaging.
[23:35] Kestrel: “It’s not a simple story. It’s really complicated – an intricate conversation.”
[24:30] How Kestrel balances staying objective as a storyteller while also expressing her opinions.
