  • This episode is how to handle feeling misunderstood and stop feeling like you have to prove yourself. A storm doesn't ask for permission before it hits, and a fire doesn't need approval to burn.

    Leo this was such a powerful message. So many ppl struggle with staying true to themselves, especially when they are the only opposing voice in a room. I really respect the way you articulated this, for reminding us that authenticity doesn’t need anyone’s permission. The way you compared it to storms & fires was just….YES. Thank you for putting this out there, it’s something a lot of ppl need to hear! 🌧️🌧️🌧️🔥🔥🔥

    I have been here for nearly 2 years now, your podcasts have stuck with me throughout different chapters in my life and sometimes i also go back on previous podcasts and see how my mindset has shifted since listening. You have a frequency that i cannot fathom that has always stuck with me and never shook off, regardless of where i am in life somehow i never fail to resort back to your guidance, thank you for your work because it has enabled me to grow when i felt most stuck and misunderstood.

    I realized a while ago that the highest forms of love can sometimes look like anger. Whenever someone does you or someone you love or something you care about wrong or disrespect you/it, it really shows you how much you love, value, respect or care for something. You getting angry when someone disrespects you even if you think you hate yourself or insecure that emotion is showing you the love and respect you have for yourself. As hard as it is for you to see it at times.

    Hii Leo! I’m not someone who comments a lot but I just wanted to thank you for your kindness and courage to share your thoughts and experiences with us. I had a really bad week, thinking I’m going into another depressive episode (after being okay for a while) but this just made me realize that I was just starting to suppress my inner storm again (and ignoring that inner voice) to please the opinions of everyone around me. I'll try to get back on my own track now, regardless of any outside validation! Thank you for speaking up, your podcasts really change my world!! Lov uu ❤️🌪️⛈️

    I was always able to be myself in the majority of places besides work. I always thought I had to be someone completely different in the workplace; a people pleasing push over to keep my job! But I understand now that if I cannot be myself (professionally of course), then this job isn’t the right one for me!!! I can be a storm at another company who appreciates the lightning a storm brings! Thanks Leo 👏🏽⛈️

    I think this is the end of an era for me. I’ve been a follower since your earlier episodes. I’ve got crazy love for you. As much as I do, I think this is one of those things where if you love it, let it go and if it comes back it’s meant for you.
    Oh! I appreciate that moment we shared in Houston during the tour, that was nuts, 😂. Very surreal. Got a feeling God’s gonna intersect our paths again. Much respect Leo. See you around 🖤 🌧️

    I spent so much of my life trying to get my mom and so many other people to try and understand me and where I was coming from. So many years wasted. I've always imagined the intense parts of myself as either a fire or a thunderstorm so this episode was especially personal for me. Can't wait for next Sunday service! 🌧🌧🌧

    ⛈️ Thank you for this episode, Leo. I swear, this came at the perfect time. I feel like I am constantly having to explain myself to people, trying to get them to understand me and where I’m coming from, but it’s just a never ending cycle that leads me nowhere. I always say you’re the male version of me; I can relate so much to you and a lot of your feelings. I am the same way when it comes to anger and I am in the process of understanding my perspective and learning to accept that part of me. Sometimes I feel like I’m too harsh or aggressive for the people around me, but this video was a good reminder to just be the storm I am. Thank you again. 🖤🦋

    29:45 that would piss me off just as much! It's a moral, integrity, and value thing. Like tf they said a "box" thats waaaay different than a "case" or ask for clarification like what they meant. And it was for kids?! You're gonna take all that for you?? No. I don't let things like that slide when kids are involved in some way. Just had to say cause I'm protective of my niece and any kids. I had to tell off this guy about some stuff recently. He was like oh I'm teasing and testing you. I was like no man I don't need you to be testing me if you don't get it then idc I don't need you to and you can take it or leave it

    Earlier today, I was having an argument with my bf now ex and was carrying / dealing with the weight of some unwarranted passive aggressiveness from my family.
    Sat in a WholeFoods parking lot crying.
    Watched this episode.
    Now I’m 10/10 re-aligned and feeling as liberated as a feather.
    FUCK getting ppl to understand me and FUCK validation, FUCK my need for validation and FUCK anyone else’s validation. I’m gonna be the 🔥 that I am and just BURN. No need to stop for permission
    Leo is enlightened af LOL he always says what I already know deep down but inadvertently avoid facing. He sort of just puts me in check to the point where I can no longer ignore what I already know cause Leo called me out on if and once its been verbalized, I ofc can’t ignore it 😂
