Stop Trying to Fit In Long Enough to Tell Your Story

"Báa gún ata nínú odó táa lọ̀ọ́ lórí ọlọ, iwa ata ò ní f'ata sílẹ̀" Whether pounded or ground, pepper remains incomparable because of its character.

Celebrate your uniqueness. Discover the best way to show up and do those things that we so desperately need and only you can perform.

As Marianne Williamson said, your playing small doesn't serve anybody. Naturally, in all things remain humble. Recognize the divine source of your power.

At the same time, however, it is necessary to honor that power by allowing it to flow freely through you. At times, that means stepping into the spotlight to tell the story from your perspective so that we might see what you see, know what you know and feel what you feel.
