July is not about pushing through.
It’s about creating with what’s real.
Grief is still here.
So is joy.
So is the desire to make something meaningful.
This month, I’m choosing embodied wholeness—
Letting grief and creativity walk together.
Letting rest and rhythm lead. #LivingIn3DPower #JulyGoals

This was collective healing. A reminder that leadership doesn’t begin when you’re older. It begins when you’re witnessed.

#LivingIn3DPower #YouthLeadership #DreamWithoutLimits
We talked about courage.
About identity.
About being seen in a world that asks girls to shrink.
Emma said:
“If you have an idea, do it. And if you have more, do it.”
She wasn’t performing.
She was becoming.
And the room met her with thunder. #livingin3dpower #substacknewsletter #youthleadership
Emma and I recorded our 1st #livepodcast keynote this week. She’s 10. The room filled with 200+ 7th-grade girls that clapped for every truth she spoke. They reminded us what real affirmation sounds like. What happened next changed both of us. #livingin3dpower #substacknewsletter #youthleadership

“What if I get fired?” Emma shrugged: “Then find a job that listens to you and you like.”
She said what so many of us need to hear when fear keeps us stuck.

“You have a voice too—let it shine.” -Emma when asked how she finds her confidence & what she’d tell someone afraid to speak up.
She’s 10. She’s wise & she reminds us what happens when we affirm a child’s voice & make space for our own.

Emma answered your questions this week—boldly, honestly, hilariously.
What surprised me most wasn’t what she said…
It was how clearly she knew who she was.
What would it look like to lead with that kind of confidence—at 10, or at 40?
New episode drops tomorrow.

What if that phrase wasn’t about silence but about softness, honesty, and wisdom?
This week’s roundup explores radical hope, emotional truth, and leadership rooted in wonder.
Because sometimes, the most powerful voice in the room is the one we were taught to correct. #Livingin3DPower
This week reminded me that real leadership isn’t about control but about curiosity.
It’s about slowing down.
It’s about listening to the truth, even when it comes from a child.
Emma and I asked: What if staying in a child’s place was sacred? #Livingin3DPower
Emma said, “Give us one thing at a time.” And it landed.
Because what if it’s not the child who’s “overwhelmed”—but the pace we’re forcing them into?

What if you had a magic napkin… and in 10 years, anything you wrote on it came true? (Great question, Dr. Shawn Ginwright!)
Now tell me—what would you write?
(It’s harder than you think.)

I asked Emma if adults have lost their imagination. And honestly? Her response was spot on.
We got too busy surviving to remember how to dream. So yeah—maybe it’s time we do less adulting and more creating.

We name the weight: racial battle fatigue, the seduction of busyness, the lie that says your worth is in your grind.
It’s not burnout. It’s betrayal.
But our brilliance is not lost—it is waiting.
Waiting for our return.

Emma searched for a doll & found only Black or white—nothing in between.
When toys only reflect either/or, what happens to the kids who exist in the in-between? Representation isn’t just about toys—it’s about belonging.

How many of us have lost touch with what we love? Self-discovery isn’t guessing—it’s returning to who you’ve always been. Do something today just because you love it. Not for work. Not for validation. Just for you.

Emma’s answer to “What superpower does the world need?” Peace & love. But here’s the thing—she said we already have them. Fear & anger just keep them buried.
What if we woke them up?

Ever shut down—not because you don’t care, but because you care too much?

After #MLK Jr.’s assassination, teacher #JaneElliott created the Blue-Eyed/Brown-Eyed Experiment to show how quickly discrimination takes root. A lie, repeated enough, became real.
Emma’s response? “I would have told them it’s not true.” #LivingIn3DPower

This video has stirred some comments of what others would have done and the harm that comes to Black people in the workforce. Curious to hear your thoughts too! #Livingin3DPower
Finding My People, Always.
At every conference, I’m the “unofficial welcoming committee” for any Black person. When you’ve grown up in spaces where you rarely see yourself, a room full of us feels like that #ColorPurple moment—Celie spotting Nettie across the field. #Livingin3DPower
