Pride Smoothies
Oh hey rainbow smoothies, it just so happens that June is Pride Month, so cheers to these smoothie recipes being a perfect fit to celebrate any and everyone who identifies as being in the LGBTQ community - and their loved ones who support them as well. One of the greatest advances I believe that my generation has done is pave the way for equality, acceptance and celebration of this community.
I truly believe that everyone has a voice and it's so easy in today's world to forget how to use it.
Using my Voice
There is so much judgement, negativity and anger online, it can be a scary place to speak up for someone else or yourself, but I think it's important. Using my voice is something I continually work on - in all areas of my life. And it's funny, looking back on my life, no matter how scary, awkward or alone I felt - I can't think of one single time that I regret using my voice and standing up for myself - or other people.
Life is all about connection and communication, what are you choosing to say? And how can you share your POV?
And now I'm driving into territory I covered in this recent post.
