@WillWGraham @LeagueOnPrime I was today years old when I wrote my first tweet toward a tv show. I love film and tv, but don’t follow or engage with shows on social. Except now ALOTO. Because it healed me in an unexpected way and I’m so grateful to be able to say that to the show’s creators.

I realized today that I’ve been my own employer longer than any previous employer. (That includes grad school since I was technically a University of Texas employee.) I feel like I should be giving myself some sort of paperweight or chain restaurant gift card for my loyalty.

Reminder: “Because I want to” is legitimate business strategy. And really, it’s a quite excellent one. No other justification for what you’re up to or how you’re doing it is necessary.

This study has limitations. They didn’t (and couldn’t in one study) test with the range of habits you might want to form. Making a habit to brush your teeth every day is very different than…say…posting every day on social media.

Hello friends! A friendly reminder from your neighborhood non-binary human that putting your pronouns on your Zoom name, social media bio, email signature, and anywhere else your name appears is an act of inclusion.
It’s not just a practice for trans and non-binary folks.

@Jeopardamy My wife and I are cheering you on every night. As a non-binary person, it is deeply soul-filling to see you kicking butt AND to see the outpouring of love and support you are receiving from all over the world.

This week was both National Daughters Day and National Sons Day. We don’t yet have a holiday for parents to celebrate their non-binary kids. Today, I celebrate anyone who doesn’t identify as “daughter” or “son”. And I celebrate parents who love and honor their non-binary kids.

What we hide about ourselves — or make ourselves wrong for — is often our greatest opportunity for connection, love, and impact.

[Dr. Erin Baker (They/Them) @DrErinMBaker]

Rather than seeing our inaction as a problem to fix, instead, we can get curious about what message it’s actually trying to deliver. Imagine what could come off your plate if you checked in on what’s really going on rather than shaming yourself for what you’ve assumed must be.

[Dr. Erin Baker (They/Them) @DrErinMBaker]

Resistance isn’t always a sign that you have a fear or a blocker that you need to move through. Sometimes you just don’t want to do that thing. And there is nothing wrong with that.

[Dr. Erin Baker (They/Them) @DrErinMBaker]

By that same token, procrastination isn’t always a sign of fear either. Nor is it always a sign of laziness. Sometimes you just don’t want to do that thing. And, I’ll say it again, there is nothing wrong with that. (Or you.)

[Dr. Erin Baker (They/Them) @DrErinMBaker]

If you think you're too messy to lead...

Too deep in your own self-work to truly help others...

I see you. I feel you. I am you.

And I'm here to remind you that your people *need* your humanity, not your perfection.

[Dr. Erin Baker (They/Them) @DrErinMBaker]

It’s about time we ditch mindset shifts and focus on full-body transformation and healing instead. You can’t out-think the traumas, core beliefs, and emotions that are weaved deeply into the tapestry of you at a neurological level.

[Dr. Erin Baker (They/Them) @DrErinMBaker]

Creating a more inclusive world starts with including all of ourselves. The parts of us we love and the parts we don't. The parts that scare us. And the parts that feel like they contradict each other. When ALL of us is welcome at the table, we can begin to welcome others too.
