If you are someone who walks your talk, stop playing small. It’s time to step up. Cos the world is starved for real leaders. The world needs YOU!
If you are REALLY behind what you teach, you walk your talk. You are a living example of your talk. This is what real leadership should be. But I am not naive to the fact that it is not at all what the actual current leaders of our world do.
A friend inspired this post and episode because of the whole Epstein files and the very famous, and largely looked up to leader, Deepak Chopra being in there. And she so eloquently put it that he is not someone who walks his talk. And yes, this pretty much sums it up. He spins a good yarn. But he doesn’t live his teachings.
There is a quote from a Spiderman movie, “With great power comes great responsibility.”
Personally, I choose to walk my talk, but before I talk I want to have walked.
What I mean by that is, talking about something without having put it into practice is just theory to me. If I haven’t lived it or tried it, then all I am doing is regurgitating someone else's ideas.
I only talk about what I have lived and been through, and I only guide people in my work through processes that I have not only been through, but I have experienced the results of the processes. They have been tried and tested by me first and foremost. Then I go through a beta phase of free sessions to see how it lands for others. If it works for others too, I then feel ready to present it to the world. (Or my world rather, which is a lot smaller than Deepaks) I do it this way because I give a fuck. I actually give a HUGE fuck about every person I work with. You are putting your trust in me, and I don’t ever take that for granted.
Integrity over everything else works for me.
So I thought if Deepak is seen as a leader, and I have more integrity than him, I better start stepping up a little more in my world and the world. Cos I can only be better than that, and the world deserves better!
Here's this man—world famous spiritual leader, someone who people look up to for guidance on their soul, their psyche, their healing—and if what they are saying is true...he does not walk his talk.
Integrity is everything when it comes to real leadership. And if I can base my worth on my integrity alone? Maybe I'm not as worthless as I've always believed.
If you've ever felt too small to matter, then please have a listen to this episode of The Sovereign Soul Podcast.
I have spent my whole life feeling small inside myself. Believing I couldn't possibly bring big ideas into the world because who the fuck am I to do that?
But if someone who is looked up to as a spiritual leader is so far out of integrity, I owe it to the people in my orbit to stop playing small. And so do you ! Our lived experience counts for everything.
I talk about the layers I've been peeling, the worthiness wound I'm still digging into, and why your integrity is a real leaders superpower.
