Racial Justice Conversation with Heidi

A Note from Heidi

You may be tempted to judge yourself harshly. It is a hard journey to come to terms with implicit bias and to start to see the injustice in the world around us. PLEASE be kind to yourself. Brene Brown has done some really good work around shame and would be a very beneficial author to look into if you're feeling those feelings. Ultimately, I urge you to be an OBSERVER of yourself and refrain from self-judgement. When we start to judge ourselves, we may lose focus on learning and growing. Let your feelings be fuel for continued learning rather than a bag of shame that keeps you down. Please reach out to those around you for support and solidarity. There are literally thousands and thousands of people going through a similar journey - you are NOT alone.
