Radical Acceptance: Be Better Than Your BS
Risha helps audiences understand Radical Acceptance and how their BiaSphere, Belief Systems and BS stop them from welcoming and embracing all of humanity. Our BS shapes how we feel about ourselves, how we perceive the world and how we interact with other. Radical acceptance teaches that through authenticity, we can connect with others on a deeper level and create a culture of acceptance and belonging. Mental health and psychological safety are more important now than ever before and those who create an environment where everyone is allowed to be themselves without fear of rejection are at the cutting edge.
