Judge Albert Wong | Freedom in a Time of Rupture

This week on Tune Up Your Warrior, I sit down a second time with Judge Albert Wong for the final episode in our three-episode Season 4 opener, and it is a conversation that feels especially important right now.Not because it adds to the noise.But because it asks a deeper question underneath it:What does freedom actually mean?Albert brings a rare perspective to that question. After 40 years in the Canadian Armed Forces | Forces armées canadiennes, including work in Afghanistan and on UN peacekeeping missions, he has seen what the oppression of freedom looks like up close, especially for women.Together, we talk about freedom not just as a political concept, but as the right to exist, express yourself, and move through the world without oppression, harassment, or fear. We explore:❤️‍🩹 Why allyship has to go beyond “I believe you”🛑 How we address harmful behavior at its source, not just after the damage is done⚡ What rupture in human relationships looks like right now👿 Why patriarchy and systemic inequality still shape how power moves♥️ And what moral courage looks like in everyday lifeI also share a personal reflection on how being touched inappropriately at a conference violated something fundamental: my freedom to exist, my freedom of joy, and my safety from harm.Albert and I will also both be speaking at the upcoming ACCT Foundation Summit in Waterloo May 15-17, we’d love to see you there.
