This week’s episode took an unexpected turn. I sat down to reflect on my four-part Substack series on truth-telling, only to realize the truth needed more time than I imagined.


In Part 1 of this sacred two-part offering, I read from the first two letters: Choosing Integrity Over Appeasement and Emotional Honesty is Leadership, and answered the same questions I ask my community every week. 


What came up was raw, real, and deeply rooted in lived experience from my childhood conditioning around silence to the cost of truth-telling in professional spaces. These aren’t just reflections. They’re reckonings.
