112 | The Lost Art of Using Your Brain Box: The Unshakable Calling for Diverse Perspectives, Empathy, and Critical Thinking

In today’s episode, I want to talk about the ‘lost art of using your brain box’, and why the unshakable calling for diverse perspectives, empathy, and critical thinking matters now, more than ever. For me, I’m questioning sooo many things - I feel a bit of a disconnect, because it’s uncomfortable, and I’ve still found myself thinking about other people and their opinions. Maybe you’re feeling similarly, because you’re questioning your thoughts and beliefs that you once had, but...you’re fearful to share, due to how others may react. But you know what? I’m so BEYOND the close-minded bullshit that we’ve been in proximity with for far too long!I believe our purpose and who we truly are is meant to evolve and grow and change. Every step of our journey will get us closer to where we’re meant to be, and surrounding ourselves with others who are doing things a little differently is a beautiful part of the process! I wish that more people today would be curious, because curiosity creates empathy. We NEED to be willing to learn from others and their diverse perspectives, instead of being so misaligned and disconnected.In this episode, I cover:My recent rebrand for my podcast and business + how it’s really allowed me to come home to myself, instead of staying in a specific ‘box’ I never truly fit inRealizing that your purpose should change, evolve, and grow, because every step of your journey will get you closer to where you’re meant to beThe deep disconnection we have not only from ourselves, but each other and natureDiscovering what empathy looks like when we choose to actually think for ourselvesBreaking free from the ‘cookie cutter, good girl’ mold you’ve felt trapped in, and instead, embracing your beautiful, weird, and multi passionate selfResources & Links:Gather in Growth Sponsorship InquiryBranch Creative CoBook me as a speaker for your next eventGather in Growth podcast produced by: Jill Carr PodcastingConnect with Emily:Follow on Instagram and FacebookJoin my email listCheck out my websiteConnect with on LinkedInBe sure to hit subscribe so you never miss the latest episode!Find the full show notes here: https://www.emilyreuschel.com/112-the-lost-art-of-using-your-brain-box-the-unshakable-calling-for-diverse-perspectives-empathy-and-critical-thinking
