Sometimes in midlife, we realize that the story of our life isn't playing out the way that we intended. We might need to rewrite that story. If you are ready to rewrite your story, schedule a discovery call with Gay and see if you would be a candidate for coaching: https://lnkd.in/eXwjQbrR (link in BIO) #gorgeouslyhealthy #gorgeouslyhealthygoddess #goddesswisdom #goddessenergy #healthylife #wellness #healthandwellness #holisticwellness #tarot #oracledeck #wisdomwednesday

A Perspective from ZAMI NOBLA's Creative Director, Angela Denise Davis. I find it interesting how so many people don’t know that the term “spiritually blind“ is ableist. I am even more disheartened when I hear clergy use that phrase. This rant was prompted from seeing a post made by a local minister who wrote, “Stop asking blind people to proofread your vision.“ During the first few months of my vision loss, I was sitting in a church where a minister preached about God not being “blind.” As a newly blind person, I felt stabbed by his words. I will never forget that. I try to think about how my words may land on the ear of the reader or listener. When I heard those words preached that Sunday, I felt as if I wasn’t considered in that sermon preparation. That sermon wasn’t for me. One may think all of this is my being too sensitive. If so, I would challenge one to think about one’s privilege or location in the world. We all have just got to do better. #zaminobla #ZAMINOBLA #angeladenisedavis #ableistlanguage #ableist #privilege #blind #lowvision #blindcommunity #lowvisionawareness #disability #disabilityawareness #disabilityrights #disabilityjustice #intersectionaltraining #livedexperience #livedexperiencematters #awareness

In both our personal and professional contexts, acceptance can mean everything.

Raising a gentleman or a young gentleman involves instilling qualities of respect, kindness, empathy, and integrity. It's about teaching the young individual to be courteous, considerate, and understanding towards others. This includes promoting good manners, proper etiquette, and a strong sense of responsibility and accountability for their actions. Raising a gentleman also involves nurturing a mindset that values equality, inclusivity, and the empowerment of others. Ultimately, the goal is to guide the young person to become a positive, respectful, and contributing member of society, embodying the qualities of a true gentleman. #refinement #raisingboys #raisinggentlemen #etiquetteandmanners #mindyourmanners #etiquettecoach #justforboys

A simpler set of comments from me on this repost than my convoluted one yesterday: • Frank Hester’s comments were worse than “disgraceful” or “bad”. They were evil, and the repercussions and wider responses must go beyond delayed and insufficient speech acts. • White colleagues were insufficiently supportive of our Black and Black female colleagues yesterday on a day of particular violence and pain. We must, collectively, do better. • This was a workplace incident, with political ramifications. Both workplace incidents *and* politics are subjects that must, to varying degrees, be actively discussed on this professional network, however awkward some might find that. • We must get more good people, of all backgrounds, into our parliaments. Please call out Hester’s behaviour, and the insufficient responses to it. Do this even (or perhaps even especially) if you think it is so obviously wrong as not to require any comment. Otherwise, those most affected are implicitly gaslit, and further attacked by an oppressive wall of silence.
