Anyone whoโs listened to the DTH podcast for long has probably heard me mention the quote “be the change you want to see in the world”. This carries profound meaning in relation to another topic I speak of often, the perpetual victim mentality. Too often, individuals perceive themselves as helpless victims of external circumstances, attributing their struggles solely to external forces beyond their control. What happens when one chooses to fully embrace the essence of the quote, challenges that perception, and helps to empower individuals to take ownership of their actions and attitudes? This shift in mindset fosters a sense of agency, resilience, and hope. This is one of the reasons Iโm so passionate about doing the Derate the Hate podcast and having the conversations Iโm blessed to have. This is why I like to find guests who are bettering the world by being the change they want to see.
