Pride is selfish
Episode 31
Friday, 30 January, 2026
Pride is an inner journey towards ownership of self. This isn’t just an LGBTQ2S+ journey, it’s a journey for everyone. Pride is a journey inward where you ask AND go inside to listen to the internal guidance system that you have been given. The journey inwards toward ownership of self and the outward evolution towards actual diversity and inclusion isn’t for the faint of heart. As we enter another season of Pride, I want to acknowledge the messy, lonely, and sometimes unstable feelings that come with growth. And many times, this journey of growth calls for letting go and even leaving others behind. Pride is a celebration of uncomfortable growth. It’s an ongoing and ever-evolving graduation into becoming more of yourself. You are not designed to be like anyone else. You are not designed to be the same person that you were last year. In my opinion, we are all transitioning as we remember who we were designed to become and this transition is a never-ending process, not a destination or a one-time ‘coming out’. Can you be extra selfish this Pride? Don’t fit in, be different, practice self-love, and celebrate how beautifully unique you are designed to be. You are worthy of love…. And you are loved. Happy Pride.
