Now that I have had time to process my thoughts and emotions post-election, I wanted to start the conversation about dealing with the next four years.
Right now, we are in a weird transition time where we feel a storm coming; we are anticipating the hurt and destruction but are stuck in limbo since it hasn’t hit yet. Since election day, I have cycled through all the stages of grief and am finally now in a place where I am ready to go back into service and control what I can control.
America survives on hope. We live in a collective delusion to stay safe. But now that the country has decisively elected a criminal, rapist, and morally bankrupt President, that cycle of delusion is broken. The cards are all laid out on the table, and it is clear that America is deeply, deeply racist.
That omittance has made me feel powerful. Now that the truth is no longer hiding behind our perpetual and collective delusion, it has validated everything I have thought and felt.
Over the past week, I have experienced everything from guttural rage to profound sadness and unexpected joy, and I am choosing to allow myself to feel however I want without guilt. I give you permission and encourage you to do the same.
Tune in to next week’s episode as I cover the four things you will need to survive the next four years.
