Summary
Now more than ever, we can feel stripped of our inherent power. I know so many of you are feeling the pressure of the world right now; but that pressure isn't a bad thing, it's actually a sign that you are being called to transform. Today's conversation is here to serve as a reminder of the individual power you hold, so you can apply it in the way that makes the impact you want to see. I share 3 tangible ways to reconnect to your power and to the collective as a whole, including how to take action through fear and uncertainty + tap into your voice to create actual change. One of the most radical things you can do right now is remember, know, and stand in your own power.

| 0:04.4 | And where can you start to reclaim that by feeling into what is this bringing up in you right now? |
| 0:12.2 | What pressure is being applied asking you to transform? |
| 0:16.6 | And where can you start to, in your thoughts, your words, your actions, remember how much power you actually have? |
| 0:30.2 | I am recording this the day before you'll hear it, the day before it airs. |
| 0:39.8 | Typically, I record episodes a little bit further in advance. |
| 0:42.8 | But there is no mistake that this one is being recorded in such a timely manner |
