00:00:24,881.995464853 --> 00:00:40,721.995464853
Welcome to another episode of Radical Responsibility Revolution, and today I wanna talk about something that has been on my mind for decades, and that is the status quo.
5
00:00:41,321.995464853 --> 00:00:47,861.995464853
It's killing us in so many different ways, and so I wanna put it in the context of real leadership.
6
00:00:49,46.995464853 --> 00:00:56,936.995464853
And the evolution that you can't avoid if you are going to want to stay in status quo.
7
00:00:57,236.995464853 --> 00:01:00,926.995464853
I am your barefoot thought leader, your queen of magic.
8
00:01:00,926.995464853 --> 00:01:05,636.995464853
And when I feel like it, your gentle nudge out of the illusion.
9
00:01:06,56.995464853 --> 00:01:10,526.995464853
Of comfort and into your most empowered self.
10
00:01:10,526.995464853 --> 00:01:25,106.995464853
Yes, I am Debbie Dobbins, and today I'm coming in hot, fresh off of a cross country road trip and a soul stirring visit to so many different places, particularly in the south of our United States of America.
11
00:01:25,856.995464853 --> 00:01:30,256.995464853
And one place that really, Touched my heart was the Civil Rights Museum in Memphis.
12
00:01:30,736.995464853 --> 00:01:35,326.995464853
And all of these experience have cracked something really wide open in me.
13
00:01:35,746.995464853 --> 00:01:37,416.995464853
And I wanna give you fair warning.
14
00:01:37,446.995464853 --> 00:01:44,556.99546485
This episode is part Sacred Sermon, part Leadership Masterclass, and part cheeky Truth bomb explosion.
15
00:01:44,586.99546485 --> 00:01:48,456.99546485
Because you know me, I don't hold a lot back, so get cozy.
16
00:01:48,456.99546485 --> 00:01:57,636.99546485
Grab your journal and prepare to feel a little uncomfortable in the best way possible because today we're talking about.
17
00:01:58,396.99546485 --> 00:02:13,236.99546485
leadership and radical freaking responsibility because I really, truly believe that if everybody accepted their own radical responsibility for life, this would be a different planet in this moment.
18
00:02:14,21.99546485 --> 00:02:21,521.99546485
a cool story about when I moved to Wichita Falls, Texas, and that's where I'm living right now.
19
00:02:21,521.99546485 --> 00:02:25,1.99546485
But it was the first time that I lived here years and years ago in the late nineties.
20
00:02:26,381.99546485 --> 00:02:36,431.99546485
And it felt like as a Southern California girl, that there was a sign, an invisible sign as you went into this city called Wichita Falls that said, this is how we've always done it.
21
00:02:36,641.99546485 --> 00:02:38,51.99546485
This is how we're gonna do it.
22
00:02:38,801.99546485 --> 00:02:43,301.99546485
And it reminds me of the world the way that I see it showing up these days.
23
00:02:43,571.99546485 --> 00:02:44,951.99546485
So I wanna talk about.
24
00:02:45,656.99546485 --> 00:03:05,486.99546485
What that experience has looked like just recently, how it's looked like over time and this road trip that I took, which has given me a different awakening because this is what's always so fabulous about life, is if you're open to shift and change and radical responsibility.
25
00:03:06,266.99546485 --> 00:03:20,246.99546485
Something magical happens, and so something magical happened with me as I drove across the country all by myself, thousands of miles of this beautiful place called America.
26
00:03:21,86.99546485 --> 00:03:32,231.99546485
I started to see things even more clearly than I have up until now, which being 70 years old, I think that's pretty remarkable that I still learn something new every day.
27
00:03:33,506.99546485 --> 00:03:48,116.99546485
When you start to see these things more clearly out the window of a car, but more in your own soul, life is so beautiful, and yet there is so much contradiction out there.
28
00:03:49,61.99546485 --> 00:03:56,861.99546485
So when I reached Memphis, I really wanted to go to this place called the Civil Rights Museum.
29
00:03:57,231.99546485 --> 00:04:01,41.99546485
if you've never been there, I highly recommend put that on your bucket list.
30
00:04:01,41.99546485 --> 00:04:07,551.99546485
Now, I'm gonna be quite honest, if you wanna look out my Facebook page, my personal Facebook page about the journey that I took.
31
00:04:08,406.99546485 --> 00:04:09,246.99546485
Across the country.
32
00:04:09,426.99546485 --> 00:04:10,746.99546485
I documented the whole thing.
33
00:04:11,176.99546485 --> 00:04:16,666.99546485
it was really interesting because this was not a place that I wanted to spend the night necessarily.
34
00:04:16,666.99546485 --> 00:04:28,306.99546485
Memphis actually has one of the highest crime rates in America, so it was that, but I was so intrigued by going to the actual site where Martin Luther King was shot.
35
00:04:29,41.99546485 --> 00:04:34,96.99546485
Standing in that very spot where he was, Dr.
36
00:04:34,96.99546485 --> 00:04:35,401.99546485
King was assassinated.
37
00:04:35,761.99546485 --> 00:04:46,651.99546485
I felt this deep cellular grief, but also an amazing activation of what is possible.
38
00:04:46,651.99546485 --> 00:04:49,106.99546485
Like it brings me to tears, thinking about.
39
00:04:50,446.99546485 --> 00:04:51,136.99546485
What Dr.
40
00:04:51,136.99546485 --> 00:05:06,416.99546485
King would be thinking about our world today, given the fact that he was such a nonviolent individual, because my lovely friends, we have lost the plot of the world that we live in now.
41
00:05:06,506.99546485 --> 00:05:14,816.99546485
It's so interesting that we've begun to, because of particularly social media, rewarding noise.
42
00:05:18,806.99546485 --> 00:05:22,466.99546485
Outrage over actual sacred action.
43
00:05:23,696.99546485 --> 00:05:35,36.99546485
We've begun to reward compliance over consciousness, and if you follow me at all, you know that consciousness is the ultimate.
44
00:05:35,996.99546485 --> 00:05:55,301.99546485
Energetic force that we all live in and consciousness is pure love consciousness, and you can call it God, the universe, whatever you wanna call it, but consciousness is pure love and it's our humanness that's getting so in the way, and especially with all of this social media.
45
00:05:56,106.99546485 --> 00:06:03,156.99546485
People are falling into traps that are taking and stripping them of their radical responsibility.
46
00:06:03,996.99546485 --> 00:06:13,206.99546485
And so this leadership that we're seeing today, it's not leadership, it's status quo, management wrapped in hashtags.
47
00:06:13,446.99546485 --> 00:06:21,461.99546485
And I'm not talking about the current, administration, I'm talking about the leadership of the resistance to it.
48
00:06:22,641.99546485 --> 00:06:38,391.99546485
Because truly what is happening is there is this desire to hold on for dear life to the status quo, and that my friends is death to everyone on so many levels.
49
00:06:39,381.99546485 --> 00:06:41,901.99546485
Leadership isn't loud.
50
00:06:43,521.99546485 --> 00:06:46,461.99546485
Leadership isn't loud, it's aligned.
51
00:06:47,421.99546485 --> 00:06:53,331.99546485
So let's talk about leadership for a second and what leadership actually is.
52
00:06:54,561.99546485 --> 00:06:56,901.99546485
leadership isn't being the loudest person in the room.
53
00:06:56,961.99546485 --> 00:07:05,541.99546485
And trust me when I say I'm usually the loudest person in the room, which is fascinating because I know I might come off as an extrovert, but I'm totally an introvert.
54
00:07:05,871.99546485 --> 00:07:07,251.99546485
And on the Myers-Brigg.
55
00:07:08,211.99546485 --> 00:07:08,901.99546485
Scale.
56
00:07:09,111.99546485 --> 00:07:12,441.99546485
An introvert is that person that wants to recharge by being alone.
57
00:07:12,441.99546485 --> 00:07:25,611.99546485
And believe me, I love my alone time, and it's not exactly the easiest thing for me to do is be in a large group of people, but I can, because I've practiced and built that muscle.
58
00:07:26,361.99546485 --> 00:07:28,581.99546485
But I do, I'm a loud person.
59
00:07:29,91.99546485 --> 00:07:36,516.99546485
I might've really been, dropped off by an Italian family because Italians have a reputation for being loud.
60
00:07:36,636.99546485 --> 00:07:43,446.99546485
And the fact is, is that because I'm loud doesn't mean that my leadership comes from that loudness.
61
00:07:43,446.99546485 --> 00:07:50,496.99546485
As a matter of fact, when I can be quiet and soft, people wanna lean in and listen.
62
00:07:51,396.99546485 --> 00:07:55,206.99546485
But leadership isn't about going viral on Instagram.
63
00:07:57,366.99546485 --> 00:08:06,36.99546485
Or any other social media platform, whether it's TikTok or Substack or LinkedIn.
64
00:08:06,516.99546485 --> 00:08:14,736.99546485
It's not about being viral on there because we've mistaken this idea of virality with leadership.
65
00:08:15,576.99546485 --> 00:08:25,926.99546485
We've mistaken this idea of influencers with leadership, and that is where the disconnect comes from because there's a lot of.
66
00:08:26,551.99546485 --> 00:08:28,461.99546485
leaders that are bullying.
67
00:08:28,611.99546485 --> 00:08:30,291.99546485
They're not agreeing with you.
68
00:08:30,921.99546485 --> 00:08:36,741.99546485
And when you really get down to the nuts and bolts of leadership, it's about alignment.
69
00:08:37,851.99546485 --> 00:08:44,391.99546485
It's being so anchored in love and vision that people feel you.
70
00:08:45,531.99546485 --> 00:08:49,41.99546485
Feel you before you even open your mouth.
71
00:08:49,671.99546485 --> 00:09:00,201.99546485
And this is the beauty of having this experience of going to the Civil Rights Museum because I was able to see Dr.
72
00:09:00,201.99546485 --> 00:09:07,261.99546485
King and Gandhi and fired Rustin, who was just such an.
73
00:09:08,766.99546485 --> 00:09:09,321.99546485
For Dr.
74
00:09:09,321.99546485 --> 00:09:30,541.99546485
King during the civil rights movement, that these were men who led with alignment of their vision, number one, but with nonviolence, with this unwavering vision, you can actually activate soul level truth, which is exactly what we are missing.
75
00:09:31,846.99546485 --> 00:09:33,766.99546485
change is absolutely fabulous.
76
00:09:33,946.99546485 --> 00:09:38,506.99546485
I'm just gonna start off by saying change is what we all need.
77
00:09:38,776.99546485 --> 00:09:45,226.99546485
Change allows us to evolve, change allows us to grow, and if you're not changing, you're dying.
78
00:09:45,946.99546485 --> 00:09:47,326.99546485
And so when I'm talking about.
79
00:09:48,31.99546485 --> 00:09:54,511.99546485
Bayard Rustin, I was so struck because honestly, I am not a, a scholar of the Civil Rights Movement.
80
00:09:54,511.99546485 --> 00:09:58,471.99546485
I was born and raised in Southern California, and, you know, we were pretty open.
81
00:09:58,471.99546485 --> 00:10:02,371.99546485
So I didn't experience any of that sort of prejudice until I moved to Texas.
82
00:10:02,821.99546485 --> 00:10:05,341.99546485
And it wasn't bad because they had come around.
83
00:10:05,341.99546485 --> 00:10:09,211.99546485
But I can't even imagine being in the south in the fifties and sixties.
84
00:10:09,246.99546485 --> 00:10:12,921.99546485
I, I, I don't even know, I'm sure I would've been, a civil rights marcher.
85
00:10:12,921.99546485 --> 00:10:13,791.99546485
the fact is, is that.
86
00:10:14,886.99546485 --> 00:10:19,986.99546485
Byard was a black gay Quaker in the 1950s.
87
00:10:21,366.99546485 --> 00:10:26,526.99546485
Let me tell you something, if he wasn't going upstream, that is, that was remarkable.
88
00:10:27,426.99546485 --> 00:10:34,86.99546485
And he was mentoring actually, Martin Luther King, and he helped him organize the March on Washington.
89
00:10:34,596.99546485 --> 00:10:36,576.99546485
But you don't hear his name very often.
90
00:10:36,846.99546485 --> 00:10:37,926.99546485
I don't believe.
91
00:10:37,926.99546485 --> 00:10:38,946.99546485
At least I haven't.
92
00:10:39,246.99546485 --> 00:10:43,826.99546485
I know that Obama gave shoutout when he was president.
93
00:10:43,826.99546485 --> 00:10:50,306.99546485
But here's the thing that was so striking because I'd already known that Martin Luther King was practicing nonviolence.
94
00:10:50,336.99546485 --> 00:10:53,786.99546485
I knew that Gandhi was practicing nonviolence because there is a.
95
00:10:54,491.99546485 --> 00:11:08,951.99546485
Season, it's called the season of nonviolence in the beginning of every year, and it's not got a lot of steam throughout the years, but I used to, participate in it and share in my tribe about the particular days because there's a thing that you do on every single day.
96
00:11:09,521.99546485 --> 00:11:10,631.99546485
But what he knew.
97
00:11:11,981.99546485 --> 00:11:16,751.99546485
Was that love was the organizing principle of the universe.
98
00:11:17,171.99546485 --> 00:11:28,1.99546485
So if we get back to that, just that little component, the love is organizing principle of the universe that we are all made of the same.
99
00:11:28,181.99546485 --> 00:11:28,961.99546485
Start us.
100
00:11:29,966.99546485 --> 00:11:33,656.99546485
He didn't need to scream it, he embodied it.
101
00:11:34,196.99546485 --> 00:11:51,656.99546485
And that's where we need to begin is to begin to embody that this is the essence of who we are, that when we look into the eyes of another human, instead of holding them as different than us.
102
00:11:52,331.99546485 --> 00:11:54,41.99546485
We look into their eyes and say, Namaste.
103
00:11:54,551.99546485 --> 00:12:00,941.99546485
The God in me sees the God in you, and that my friends is true radical responsibility.
104
00:12:01,721.99546485 --> 00:12:07,641.99546485
And so it's funny because I feel like I'm always the outcast, right? Because.
105
00:12:08,931.99546485 --> 00:12:24,86.99546485
I'm never doing anything according to the norm, and I absolutely literally abhor the status quo because if we're in the status quo, we're not moving forward, and that is one of the primary ingredients of being a good leader, is being a forward thinker.
106
00:12:25,656.99546485 --> 00:12:37,746.99546485
So, Simon Sinek did a great Ted Talk a number of years ago that I used to use all the time, but he talks about it in the context of the law of diffusion of innovation.
107
00:12:38,706.99546485 --> 00:12:46,731.99546485
So I wanna talk about that framework that explains why the world feels so resistant to change.
108
00:12:47,451.99546485 --> 00:13:00,171.99546485
Because we all understand, I think the concept of you don't like change because it's just, it feels uncomfortable, right? But that's the process that life is, life is change.
109
00:13:00,411.99546485 --> 00:13:01,221.99546485
That's it.
110
00:13:01,671.99546485 --> 00:13:10,191.99546485
It isn't about whether you resist it or not, it's just part of the overall criteria of being alive.
111
00:13:10,641.99546485 --> 00:13:13,131.99546485
And so this law of diffusion of innovation.
112
00:13:13,926.99546485 --> 00:13:23,736.99546485
As I said, go check out Simon Sinek's talk about it because it's really quite fabulous and he is talking about leadership, but also this law of diffusion of innovation.
113
00:13:24,246.99546485 --> 00:13:28,896.99546485
There's five categories of people, and I think if you just.
114
00:13:29,411.99546485 --> 00:13:42,981.99546485
Even begin to understand who you are, where you land in here, you're gonna get a better idea of who you are representing in this overall world of what's called change.
115
00:13:43,431.99546485 --> 00:13:46,851.99546485
So the first category are the innovators.
116
00:13:47,841.99546485 --> 00:13:50,276.99546485
That's only 2.5%
117
00:13:50,616.99546485 --> 00:13:51,591.99546485
of the population.
118
00:13:51,591.99546485 --> 00:13:56,301.99546485
This is a statistic, so if you are an innovator, you're in the minority.
119
00:13:58,831.99546485 --> 00:14:02,101.99546485
the innovators are the ones that are creating, it's the right brothers.
120
00:14:02,101.99546485 --> 00:14:03,991.99546485
It's the guys that have flown to the moon.
121
00:14:04,411.99546485 --> 00:14:08,11.99546485
It's the Donald Trumps of the world, literally, that are coming up with.
122
00:14:08,401.99546485 --> 00:14:21,931.99546485
Ideas that are so far out of the norm that yes, you feel a little uncomfortable, especially if you're one of these other categories, but as an innovator, brings an idea forward.
123
00:14:23,101.99546485 --> 00:14:27,871.99546485
There was so much resistance, and I'm sure there's still resistance out there to this idea of ai.
124
00:14:29,431.99546485 --> 00:14:33,91.99546485
So if you're an innovator with ai, I was like on board.
125
00:14:33,91.99546485 --> 00:14:36,331.99546485
I was at what the second category called early adopters.
126
00:14:36,721.99546485 --> 00:14:41,431.99546485
I didn't innovate ai, frankly, I didn't really understand it until I started to use it.
127
00:14:41,671.99546485 --> 00:14:46,821.99546485
But I was in the category of an early adopter, which is only 13.5%
128
00:14:46,821.99546485 --> 00:14:49,131.99546485
of the population are early adopters.
129
00:14:49,341.99546485 --> 00:14:50,931.99546485
So they see an innovation.
130
00:14:51,651.99546485 --> 00:15:02,481.99546485
They didn't necessarily create it, but they're like, oh my gosh, I have to be part of this because I can see the vision and the future.
131
00:15:02,721.99546485 --> 00:15:05,601.99546485
Just like Martin Luther King was an innovator.
132
00:15:06,861.99546485 --> 00:15:08,511.99546485
Gandhi was an innovator.
133
00:15:09,381.99546485 --> 00:15:33,741.99546485
Then other people came along and early adopted the idea of this non-violence, but this desire for a shift and a change, whether it be AI or civil rights or any other thing that you see out there that may scare you a little bit, This third category called the early majority, so once 16%, two point a half of the innovators, 13.5%
134
00:15:33,741.99546485 --> 00:15:34,701.99546485
are the early adopters.
135
00:15:35,991.99546485 --> 00:15:42,801.99546485
Once those people start to feel into whatever this new shift is, we get this early majority.
136
00:15:43,596.99546485 --> 00:15:53,706.99546485
34% of the people after 16% have said, yes, I think this is a good idea, will begin to shift into seeing the new vision.
137
00:15:54,246.99546485 --> 00:15:57,156.99546485
But it's really challenging thinking about that.
138
00:15:57,156.99546485 --> 00:15:57,456.99546485
There's gonna be.
139
00:15:58,731.99546485 --> 00:16:03,111.99546485
Whole lot of people that are still left behind, which is the late majority.
140
00:16:03,111.99546485 --> 00:16:06,171.99546485
That's category four, that's 34%.
141
00:16:06,711.99546485 --> 00:16:10,701.99546485
And then the last category is the laggers, which is the 16%.
142
00:16:10,701.99546485 --> 00:16:21,306.99546485
So all of this is where do you fall on that spectrum? Are you an early adopter of something that you've seen that's innovative? I mean, people are getting on board.
143
00:16:21,306.99546485 --> 00:16:29,76.99546485
The early majority of 34% is buying into AI like crazy, but the late majority is still reticent.
144
00:16:29,76.99546485 --> 00:16:35,166.99546485
And believe me, there are still the laggards out there of 16% of holding onto this idea of ai.
145
00:16:35,166.99546485 --> 00:16:40,446.9954649
But I wanna speak to it in terms of leadership status quo.
146
00:16:41,346.9954649 --> 00:16:47,106.9954649
And really begin to look at where are you resisting change.
147
00:16:47,766.9954649 --> 00:16:55,596.9954649
Because guess what? There is so many things that need to be changed in the world, especially in our country.
148
00:16:56,286.9954649 --> 00:17:00,941.9954649
And guess where I've always lived? The early adopter.
149
00:17:01,626.9954649 --> 00:17:14,706.9954649
And the innovator zone because I truly know that there is more available, this infinite potential and event, infinite possibility in the world.
150
00:17:15,486.9954649 --> 00:17:26,616.9954649
I was reading metaphysical books in the seventies when people thought I was nuts, and when I say metaphysical, I'm always talking about beyond the physical, whether it be quantum physics or spirituality.
151
00:17:27,186.9954649 --> 00:17:32,316.9954649
But metaphysics has now been basically scientifically supported.
152
00:17:32,556.9954649 --> 00:17:43,896.9954649
But it doesn't stop somebody that really knows that innovation and early adopting is the way that will bring us to the next stage of our own evolution.
153
00:17:44,196.9954649 --> 00:17:46,926.9954649
As a matter of fact, if you watch this channel at all or you.
154
00:17:47,91.9954649 --> 00:17:48,381.9954649
I read my book.
155
00:17:48,681.9954649 --> 00:17:54,716.9954649
I stopped paying federal income tax in my twenties because I didn't trust the government to be a good steward with my money.
156
00:17:55,131.9954649 --> 00:17:56,211.9954649
I don't know.
157
00:17:56,211.9954649 --> 00:18:06,951.9954649
There's, there are some people out there that do that, but that's not a big percentage of people because literally I was bucking the status quo, even back in the seventies.
158
00:18:07,191.9954649 --> 00:18:17,331.9954649
And I've been talking about sovereignty, consciousness, and self responsibility long before it became trendy.
159
00:18:17,901.9954649 --> 00:18:20,396.9954649
Because nowadays, I think even the gen.
160
00:18:21,546.9954649 --> 00:18:31,896.9954649
Zs are beginning to look at what is it mean for me to take responsibility for me, and maybe you are beginning to wake up to that as well.
161
00:18:32,466.9954649 --> 00:18:43,926.9954649
The problem is the world is run by the late majority and the laggards, I wanna say that again because that's what the problem is.
162
00:18:45,246.9954649 --> 00:18:55,566.9954649
The world is run by the late majority and the laggards, the ones who say, this is how we've always done it, and this is how we're gonna keep doing it.
163
00:18:56,166.9954649 --> 00:19:10,776.9954649
Does that sound familiar? How many times are you resisting holding onto protesting, doing your best to keep things the same? That is death to everything.
164
00:19:10,806.9954649 --> 00:19:12,456.9954649
That is death to life.
165
00:19:13,431.9954649 --> 00:19:26,841.9954649
So when I say that, welcome to Wichita Falls in the early two thousands because really was what I experienced, but now I see that it wasn't just Wichita Falls, it's the world.
166
00:19:27,801.9954649 --> 00:19:34,101.9954649
So I wanna share with you why the status quo is so dangerous.
167
00:19:34,971.9954649 --> 00:19:37,521.9954649
It's not just boring, really, it's deadly.
168
00:19:38,316.9954649 --> 00:19:42,486.9954649
Comfort breeds complacency.
169
00:19:43,686.9954649 --> 00:19:47,376.9954649
If you are comfortable, you are complacent.
170
00:19:47,856.9954649 --> 00:20:04,176.9954649
And I'm telling you, I find myself in the most uncomfortable positions on a constant basis because I'm always looking for change because my basic principles are love and consciousness, but the world itself, the doing this in the world.
171
00:20:05,91.9954649 --> 00:20:05,541.9954649
It's not.
172
00:20:05,591.9954649 --> 00:20:11,231.9954649
It breeds disconnection, and disconnection breeds control.
173
00:20:11,771.9954649 --> 00:20:18,911.9954649
This is what is the problem with complacency and disconnection and status quo.
174
00:20:19,571.9954649 --> 00:20:28,741.9954649
It is a a breeding ground for control and the status quo wants you to stay busy, but not intentional.
175
00:20:29,836.9954649 --> 00:20:32,776.9954649
Follow rules, but not question systems.
176
00:20:33,496.9954649 --> 00:20:36,226.9954649
Be productive, but not powerful.
177
00:20:36,736.9954649 --> 00:20:46,186.9954649
This is the thing that I've railed against for probably two years now, is this idea of productivity is about doing this and busyness.
178
00:20:46,666.9954649 --> 00:20:50,116.9954649
It's not about being internally powerful.
179
00:20:51,226.9954649 --> 00:20:53,776.9954649
We've been taught to outsource.
180
00:20:54,856.9954649 --> 00:20:56,176.9954649
Everything in our lives.
181
00:20:56,686.9954649 --> 00:20:57,976.9954649
Everything.
182
00:20:58,6.9954649 --> 00:21:01,726.9954649
And this is where radical responsibility comes in.
183
00:21:02,26.9954649 --> 00:21:09,826.9954649
If you're outsourcing your health to doctors, that they have the ultimate answer when they're being driven by.
184
00:21:10,211.9954649 --> 00:21:34,946.9954649
The drug community or you've outsourced your financial decisions to a, investment management firm so that you believe that Wall Street is the only creation of your retirement, or you've outsourced your leadership to bureaucrats and you're thinking, more importantly, you're thinking to the media.
185
00:21:36,191.9954649 --> 00:21:48,91.9954649
We've outsourced our whole lives to outside third parties, and we wonder why we're so anxious, why we're so unhappy, why we're always in fear.
186
00:21:48,91.9954649 --> 00:21:57,541.9954649
Because all of those energies are there to drive their own business models by your fear.
187
00:21:58,81.9954649 --> 00:22:00,571.9954649
That is not leadership.
188
00:22:01,396.9954649 --> 00:22:06,316.9954649
empowering you to make your own educated, knowledgeable decisions.
189
00:22:06,706.9954649 --> 00:22:07,636.9954649
That's leadership.
190
00:22:08,656.9954649 --> 00:22:11,656.9954649
The opposite of that is mental slavery.
191
00:22:12,76.9954649 --> 00:22:16,786.9954649
Literally a different type of slavery than I experienced at that Civil Rights Museum.
192
00:22:16,786.9954649 --> 00:22:18,496.9954649
But it's slavery, nonetheless.
193
00:22:18,856.9954649 --> 00:22:25,96.9954649
Mental slavery, dressed up in productivity tools and pretty infographics.
194
00:22:25,576.9954649 --> 00:22:36,526.9954649
That is what we are doing by outsourcing our lives to everything other than our own internal wisdom, and I am done with it.
195
00:22:37,366.9954649 --> 00:22:42,136.9954649
Because radical responsibility, I'm gonna tell you something, it ain't sexy.
196
00:22:43,96.9954649 --> 00:23:00,846.9954649
It's not, it doesn't get a lot of likes on Instagram, right? What gets likes, what gets viral is funny things, a good pet story or the fear, the fear mongering and the loudest person is actually getting the virality.
197
00:23:01,386.9954649 --> 00:23:04,716.9954649
But radical responsibility requires you.
198
00:23:05,451.9954649 --> 00:23:17,541.9954649
To own your own thoughts, really begin to become aware of how many thoughts you have every day that aren't yours, that were somebody else's, that were given to you, and you adopted them and you held onto them.
199
00:23:18,771.9954649 --> 00:23:23,601.9954649
Radical responsibility is owning your own energy.
200
00:23:24,336.9954649 --> 00:23:26,706.9954649
Owning your own outcomes.
201
00:23:27,456.9954649 --> 00:23:35,496.9954649
Stop blaming your past, your ex, your job, your parents, or your government.
202
00:23:36,96.9954649 --> 00:23:42,186.9954649
Nothing is responsible for your feelings except for you.
203
00:23:43,116.9954649 --> 00:23:47,941.9954649
Radical responsibility means saying, I don't agree with this narrative.
204
00:23:48,966.9954649 --> 00:23:51,996.9954649
I don't choose fear.
205
00:23:52,656.9954649 --> 00:23:56,76.9954649
I don't outsource my truth.
206
00:23:56,766.9954649 --> 00:24:01,566.9954649
the system will try to bully you back into the box.
207
00:24:01,596.9954649 --> 00:24:06,996.9954649
And we have seen that over the past decade of this thing called cancel culture.
208
00:24:07,416.9954649 --> 00:24:16,896.9954649
how radical is that to say that you are buying into being bullied by some system that says.
209
00:24:17,11.9954649 --> 00:24:20,791.9954649
Get back in the box and believe the way that I'm telling you to believe.
210
00:24:21,31.9954649 --> 00:24:24,391.9954649
That is the antithesis of radical responsibility.
211
00:24:25,561.9954649 --> 00:24:29,251.9954649
And then they're gonna bully you and they're gonna shame you and call you selfish.
212
00:24:30,126.9954649 --> 00:24:32,376.9954649
Irresponsible, privileged.
213
00:24:32,406.9954649 --> 00:24:33,186.9954649
Oh, I love that one.
214
00:24:33,246.9954649 --> 00:24:34,86.9954649
White privilege.
215
00:24:34,326.9954649 --> 00:24:37,866.9954649
You know what the fact of the matter is, is there is no victimhood.
216
00:24:38,226.9954649 --> 00:24:40,716.9954649
So that's where radical responsibility comes in.
217
00:24:40,926.9954649 --> 00:24:51,541.9954649
I'm a woman and I don't rely on the fact that I'm a victim because I'm a woman, and this is also so dangerous to our overall communities.
218
00:24:52,476.9954649 --> 00:24:54,366.9954649
Here's the plot twist.
219
00:24:54,786.9954649 --> 00:25:10,266.9954649
You're actually the safest person in the room when you're practicing radical responsibility because you're grounded in your own integrity and that my friends is unshakeable.
220
00:25:11,566.9954649 --> 00:25:14,176.9954649
change is uncomfortable.
221
00:25:14,256.9954649 --> 00:25:15,456.9954649
I remember a time when.
222
00:25:16,281.9954649 --> 00:25:25,581.9954649
Someone had cleaned out my garage in a beautiful house that I lived in California, and she wanted to move the trash can location, and I was like, oh no.
223
00:25:25,581.9954649 --> 00:25:25,761.9954649
Oh no.
224
00:25:26,691.9954649 --> 00:25:35,121.9954649
But the fact is, is that real evolution is always uncomfortable and we are evolving as a species.
225
00:25:36,366.9954649 --> 00:25:42,396.9954649
We are in a way that has never been seen before, and it is messy.
226
00:25:42,966.9954649 --> 00:25:55,746.9954649
It's fast, it's dizzying, but it's so, so, so necessary because we are either evolving or we're dying.
227
00:25:56,976.9954649 --> 00:25:58,596.9954649
There is no neutral ground.
228
00:25:58,656.9954649 --> 00:26:03,66.9954649
It's either you're moving forward and changing, or you're dying and staying still.
229
00:26:04,476.9954649 --> 00:26:11,946.9954649
We cannot clinging to old paradigms and expect new earth results.
230
00:26:12,696.9954649 --> 00:26:19,506.9954649
That whole idea that you can't keep doing the same thing over and over and expect a different result, that's insanity.
231
00:26:20,16.9954649 --> 00:26:26,376.9954649
You can't keep outsourcing your soul and wonder why you feel numb.
232
00:26:27,336.9954649 --> 00:26:33,6.9954649
You can't keep asking the government, the media, or even your coach to save you.
233
00:26:33,921.9954649 --> 00:26:41,31.9954649
Every good coach knows that you're leading their client to see their own idea and solution.
234
00:26:41,541.9954649 --> 00:26:44,211.9954649
Evolution doesn't happen in your comfort zone.
235
00:26:44,331.9954649 --> 00:26:46,941.9954649
Evolution doesn't happen in your comfort zone.
236
00:26:47,331.9954649 --> 00:26:48,261.9954649
It cannot.
237
00:26:48,951.9954649 --> 00:26:50,486.9954649
It's not about the change.
238
00:26:50,836.9954649 --> 00:26:54,86.9954649
It's about staying stuck in the status quo.
239
00:26:55,611.9954649 --> 00:27:05,481.9954649
Evolution happens in your clarity zone, in your consciousness zone, in your radical responsibility zone.
240
00:27:06,501.9954649 --> 00:27:12,51.9954649
So I don't know which category you are in based on what I just shared with you earlier.
241
00:27:12,51.9954649 --> 00:27:21,921.9954649
Are you an innovator, an early adopter? Are you and laggard? But I am here to call to the 1% of you that are ready.
242
00:27:22,266.9954649 --> 00:27:24,396.9954649
To change the world.
243
00:27:24,696.9954649 --> 00:27:26,346.9954649
Here's my call to you.
244
00:27:27,246.9954649 --> 00:27:50,646.9954649
If you are someone who's felt out of place your whole life, if you've always known that there's more, if you've been the weird one, the wild one, the whisperer, the wisdom keeper, congratulations because you are part of the dynamic 1% that is making a change in this world.
245
00:27:51,666.9954649 --> 00:28:00,936.9954649
Sweeping into that 16%, and I don't mean the 1%, the financial elite that was protested again 20 years ago or so.
246
00:28:01,566.9954649 --> 00:28:15,666.9954649
I'm talking about the conscious elite, the innovators, the edge walkers, the sacred disruptors, and now more than ever, we need you.
247
00:28:16,536.9954649 --> 00:28:18,906.9954649
We need you to speak up.
248
00:28:19,836.9954649 --> 00:28:38,16.9954649
In a nonviolent way to step forward, to stand tall, to lead, to love, and to live, not from your ego, not from fear, but from anchored divine responsibility.
249
00:28:39,981.9954649 --> 00:28:59,661.9954649
It is a big, big challenge, and I challenge all of you to decide where are you? Are you stuck in fear as the status quo, or are you ready to break out and to make a difference? What does this all mean? It means you have a choice.
250
00:29:00,471.9954649 --> 00:29:01,851.9954649
You can follow the masses.
251
00:29:03,771.9954649 --> 00:29:05,781.9954649
You can follow your knowing.
252
00:29:06,561.9954649 --> 00:29:14,841.9954649
You can clinging like nobody's business to the status quo, or you can become the status glow.
253
00:29:15,231.9954649 --> 00:29:21,681.9954649
That's what I'm looking for, is to be this glow that people say, wow, that is who I am too.
254
00:29:22,676.9954649 --> 00:29:24,561.9954649
You can outsource your truth.
255
00:29:25,341.9954649 --> 00:29:29,121.9954649
You can embody, embody your sovereignty.
256
00:29:29,661.9954649 --> 00:29:31,341.9954649
This is your moment.
257
00:29:32,151.9954649 --> 00:29:42,711.9954649
This is your revolution, and this is your invitation to evolve to something that we haven't even seen yet.
258
00:29:43,461.9954649 --> 00:29:50,121.9954649
We are on the precipice of new imagination, and if you need a space to be held in that.
259
00:29:51,621.9954649 --> 00:30:08,571.9954649
To be mirrored, mentored, and magnificently reminded of your power, come join me inside the inner billionaire Circle because we're just getting started making that radical responsibility revolution a reality.
260
00:30:09,171.9954649 --> 00:30:13,791.9954649
And so until next time, remember, you're not here to fit in.
261
00:30:14,211.9954649 --> 00:30:16,251.9954649
you are here to redefine everything.
