Deep dives
Embracing Extraordinary Potential
Many individuals, especially women and marginalized groups, often struggle with the belief that they can be extraordinary due to societal conditioning. This conditioning teaches that aspiring to greatness can be seen as arrogant or selfish, leading many to conform to traditional roles and expectations. As a response to a regression in social justice and gender equality, it is more vital than ever for these groups to recognize their own power and resilience. Embracing the idea of being extraordinary means committing to personal values and living intentionally, rather than allowing external forces to dictate one's self-worth and potential.
