Dr. BIG STEPPA! Keep inspiring and pressing forward 💛👏🏾
My talk, "Keep Pressing Forward!", in the process of writing was one that stirred my soul and awakened my spirit. While this talk is raw, I knew that it was what needed to be done. Ultimately, I found this to be healing and necessary. No need to hide or be ashamed--life is happening to all of us, and it's important that we make space to be human. I'm so deeply grateful for the opporunty to have shared this piece with you all--the world. It is my greatest hope that each of you who watches this wakes up every morning and finds the strength to carry on. If you take nothing else from this talk, I ask that you'll carry this part... "No matter how dark the night may be, the sun will rise again... and again... and again. Keep pressing forward!" I wholeheartedly appreciate the honor of sharing this journey of life with all of you who have connected with this talk.
I appreciate your willingness to share your truth with vulnerability and candor. Congratulations, Dr. Eve!
