  1. Unlock Your Authentic Voice

    Unlock Your Authentic Voice

    Peaceful Living Blog · ·

    Dear friends,

    #UnlockYourAuthenticVoice 

    This has been on my mind lately. What does it mean to unlock my authentic voice? How do I talk about things that matter to me without creating emotional distance between myself and others? I’ve found this especially challenging after the US presidential election this month— half the voters are devastated by Donald Trump’s election, and the other half are elated. The extremes are vast. Sometimes imagining a coming-together feels hopeless.
