6/26/2026 NOT EVERY CAUSE IS WORTHY OF YOUR PASSION EPISODE 1811 “Before you lend your voice, insure your passion submits to your principles and your priorities!” J Loren Norris We have seen play out in recent years an ever evolving “outrage de’jour”. Dozens of demonstrations, hundreds or thousands of demonstrators, news coverage and social media virality spread the message and fuel the unrest. Often celebrities and pundits are dragged into the fray. Some demanding change, some poking at the opposition, some criticizing anything they can for attention. As a leader beware the trap 🪤! Those who would encourage, inspire, recruit you speak on their behalf, align with their cause, demand change for their communities have less invested than they expect of you. They will use your voice, your influence, your platform until the societal backlash crushes you to a fine powdery dust, then discard your reputation like yesterday’s garbage. Protect your own priorities. Preserve your principles. Guard your reputation. RESOURCES MENTIONED IN THIS VIDEO: 🚀 Book Your Private Story Audit with J.
