Want to be able to explore how you can OWN your power, and never let anyone limit you or make you feel small?

I sat down with an author, social activist, and TED speaker Yassmin Abdel-Magied, who shared how to empower oneself and have the courage to realize your full potential.

Yassmin Abdel wants YOU to know that you are HUGE and amazing. You have a gift to share, and talents abound. The key is to NEVER doubt yourself and let others convince you to play small because of your race, gender, or nationality.

Yassmin explains that sometimes people want to put expectations and limits on you just because of your race, gender, faith, nationality etc. They say this is what you SHOULD do and should not do – and want you to comply.
But that choice is yours. 

Don’t let them make you feel small and trapped. You can literally stand up and say:

“I might be young, born somewhere else BUT that does not limit my ability to change and have an impact on the world and realise my full potential.”

As long as you have the courage to take risks – even knowing that it might not always pay off, and you have the inner resilience to bounce back, YOU WILL SUCCEED. Period.
