IT TOOK ME YEARS TO UNDERSTAND:
Collective liberation has many perspectives.
Only doing the inner work – separately, in our atomic households – won’t be enough.
We need community. We need connection. We need to take various collective actions to fight oppression where we see it.
But there’s that inner work, too. Profound. Slow. Rarely easy. Never comfortable.
But always always always worth it.
As a political commentator who talks about different forms and systems of external oppression, I’m also interested in my own personal transformation. In this platform, I share with you tools, frameworks, authors, and anything of value I have found to lead a life of authenticity.
Imperfectly, yes – but to do it any way.

MORE ABOUT ME
My name is Justina, nice to see you here.
I’m a political commentator, travel, language, and pet enthusiast, an educator, and someone who has a deep desire to share valuable resources with others.
Because I know too well what it means to not be living out of your values: not to speak out, not to bring your full you to work, and not to do what’s truly meaningful to you. I’ve been there myself and I know what it does to your soul.
If you’re there, I want to help YOU to leave by sharing different tools and frameworks ❤️
