About this episode
This episode discusses the validity of instincts and the challenges of remembering supporting information in conversations about justice.
You ever know something is wrong. Like, feel it deep in your spirit... but can’t remember the tweet, TikTok, article, or headline that told you why? Same. This episode is for the justice-minded with forgetful brains and overwhelmed notes apps. Inspired by a TikTok that called it out perfectly: “I be trying to stand up for what is right... all I know is you need to stay the f*ck away from it.” We’re getting into: Why your instincts are valid, even if you don’t have the footnotes The pressure to “prove” your point in every convo How content overload, and burnout mess with our memory The difference between being informed vs. morally aligned Tips for organizing your thoughts, beliefs, and digital receipts Because you don’t owe anyone a TED Talk every time you stand for something. Your gut is smart. Your awareness matters. And just because your brain blanks doesn’t mean your stance isn’t real. If you’ve ever whispered “I’m fighting for the people, but I forgot the name of the battle”… this one’s for you. — 🖤 JOIN THE SUBJECTIVE COMMUNITY 🎧 Listen & subscribe 📬 Newsletter 📲 IG / TikTok: @TheSubjectivePod 📸IG @_DonyelleMurray 📥 Business: subjective@donyellemurray.com 📚📰…
