empowerment
"If I am able to inspire others in any way, that would be my greatest accomplishment... i want to empower others to love their skin & themselves!"
- Imani Futrell
"If you put shame in a petri dish, it needs three things to grow exponentially: secrecy, silence, & judgment. If you put the same amount of shame in a petri dish & douse it with empathy, it can’t survive." – Dr. Brene Brown
For us, empowerment is about being shameless & owning our experiences & stories. It's a tool for freedom & permission to access a voice we have had but may have been afraid to use. Empowerment was a key tool in our summit.
