Today we discuss the Princess Tiana hug that tugged on everyone's hearts and, more importantly, healed the inner little Black girl in so many of us who saw the video. Additionally, we discuss some social science about representation.

This episode is about coming in dead last and STILL winning. We discuss how winning is defined and I share a TON of resources at the end of the episode, which I also list below.

We All Win does not negate competition, and in a 2-person race for a promotion or anything else your heart may be set on, YOU should win.

I KNOW if it's between me and you I'm rooting for ME, as well all should.

Let's WIN together!

In this episode we take a look at what may be holding you back in your journey to live out fully.

Some questions you can ask yourself:

1. Regarding others:
   • Can I do that better?
   • Do I want to do that?
   • Are they doing their best?
   • Are they having fun?
   • Do I think it's brave to do what they're doing?
   • Am I brave enough to do that?
     • If yes, and I want to do that, why aren't I do it too?
2. Regarding yourself:
   • If I heard someone say that about my friend or loved one, what would I say?
