Travelling through East Africa, I had an uncomfortable encounter with the Maasai people that left me questioning the woman I was choosing to be. What I discovered about the story I was telling myself changed not only how I saw the Maasai women, but how I experienced our future encounters together.

In this episode, I share a personal reminder of how our assumptions shape our experiences—and what can happen when we have the courage to look in the mirror with honesty, love, and compassion.
