There are times I hold back for a variety of reasons. But there have been several instances lately where I chose to say "that one quick thing." I was encouraged to speak up because my head, heart, and gut were nudging me.
And here's the interesting part. I said "the thing" without thinking there would be an outcome. But in all instances, something affirming and transformational happened.
The lesson? Listen to the cues. Don't hold back.
Thank you, Kara, for the call to action. I'm with you 100%.
I think I've mentioned that I usually get to your newsletters one or two days behind. So, as I was reading this newsletter I was also thinking, one quick thing? What would I even say? I didn’t have a moment to be passive yesterday. Yesterday was stressful and beyond (well, almost beyond) my endurance level. But then it hit me. I did “just say one quick thing.” I sent my daughter a gif, said I missed her, and I’ve been thinking about her every day for the last 3 months. I didn’t expect a response, but I got one. She’s doing better. She’s starting a new job next month. She needs more time to heal herself. One quick thing for the win! Happy Friday, Kara.
This is incredibly timely, Kara.

same with me - one quick thing; didn't expect a response. It felt so affirming for me personally.
It's amazing what happens when you allow your voice to be heard. I'm happy you had a positive experience, too, Diane.
