🤷🏻 🍒 What does freedom mean if I still need everybody else to agree with me⁉️🤷🏻‍♀️

👂🏼🗣️‼️ In the work that we do here, listening is one of the main ingredients to creating cooperation and cohesion both within ourselves and within groups of people.

🥰 This opens up the path to collective wisdom where we all get to hold our beliefs, loosely and honor the beliefs and views of others, and through this process, possibly coming to a more sustainable and working solution for everybody. 🤗❤️‍🔥

We are not islands. We are interdependent as hell. 🌎

💪🏼‼️ To me, real freedom takes work. It takes self-responsibility. It takes being able to listen without losing myself, disagree without dehumanizing somebody, and stay curious without becoming gullible.

I love the idea of freedom♥️. Peace☮️. Independence💥. But none of those things are something I can force into existence—inside myself or out in the world.

The minute I’m trying to make you think like me, I’m not really practicing freedom. I’m just dressing up control in better language. 😬

So… where are you asking for freedom while still trying to control the room?
