Episode 51: What We Say Matters
The reason why I choose not to say the "F Word" will surprise you. It has to do with a house sparrow…well not literally. Listen in and find out why.
Today's episode is the 5th of the "It Matters" series I have been covering over the last few months. We are not just passive bystanders watching life happen to us. Let's own the fact that we are free agents actively engaged in our lives; and what we think, eat, watch and say matters!!

Words have power: They can heal or hurt.
Sociology 101: Cultural context gives words meaning...and we are part of a worldwide culture!
A hike in the red rocks: How we say words MATTERS...so much. To me, that is just as important as the actual words culture has assigned a certain meaning to.
Invasive species & fast food: Have certain words taken over your vocabulary and what is your conversation full of? Cheap additives & fillers of meaningful context?

5 Things you can do today to change the words you say and how you say it.
One last thing that I don’t think I articulated in the episode as much as I wanted to. Words and the energy behind what we say does matter. Names matter and I will absolutely respect what words someone wants me to call them or their organization or their church or race…because it matters to them and that matters to me! For example-I will call you he/him/she/her/it/them/they…whatever honors you my friend, because I want you to feel respect and love.
