Attorneys. Professors. Bosses. Clergy. Experts. Older people. And sometimes just really fucking confident people.Without realizing it, we can automatically promote someone else's knowing while quietly demoting our own.But respecting expertise doesn't require self-erasure.Someone can know more than you without that meaning you know nothing. You can be teachable without becoming subordinate. You can discover you're wrong without deciding you were foolish to trust yourself.Maybe self-authority isn't trusting yourself instead of other people.Maybe it's finally including yourself among the people whose knowing you consider trustworthy.💡 Release · Reveal · Respond🎙️Produced by Kavi Apoha Studios 🌕A Zero Point Eclectic Production 💬Hosted by Gin — Soul Doula, Eclectic Alchemist, founder of ZPE & QFFC.🎵Theme Song Lyrics: Rev.
