3 Key Points

1. Accept yourself for who you are instead of seeking external validation from others.
2. We have to have real face-to-face conversations about racial inequality.
3. Unfortunately, we are often treated based on how people perceive us based on their personal bias towards how we look.

Tweetable Quotes:

• “Everybody really has to do their own work in this whole process. But, we need to be able to know that advocacy and social justice is a spiritual practice and we need to work on that. The time has come.” –Aissa Hillebrand
• “I became an advocate. I think for the young child within me. You know? Saying it is ok. You are good enough. Really, the acceptance needs to come from within you. What is it that you’re doing to accept yourself?” –Aissa Hillebrand
• (Racial Inequality) “For me, the most important thing is to continue having the conversation.” –Aissa Hillebrand

Starting a podcast can feel overwhelming. You’re probably thinking is the market oversaturated? Will my podcast even make a dent? There’s probably a little imposter syndrome creeping in thinking, who am I to throw my hat in the ring?

There are about 1.2 Million podcasts out there but only about 50% of them are considered active.***

Why is that?

I actually feel like these statistics are encouraging for a few reasons. A lot of people throw podcasts out there without giving a few key areas some much needed consideration. I promise you - these mistakes are why there are so many shows in the podcast graveyard.

But not yours! This is your passion. Your voice. Your message. Your stories. You are going to make it great!

Please listen, comment, share.
