"What Now?" with Ashley Williams of BareSOUL Yoga - Managing Shifts

Emotions have been at an all-time high the last few days. I want to acknowledge that this particular #SweetTalks episode was recorded in regards to COVID-19, prior to the most recent killings of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, George Floyd and the protests and other demonstrations of pain across our nation and the world. We are facing and have been facing one pandemic for much longer than the most recent, but both are still ravaging through the black community. RACISM and COVID.

This particular episode highlights my personal perspective of recognizing that time is precious and when faced with new trauma, we are all entitled to react differently and in our own way. I almost hesitated in sharing this episode because it does not truly embody the anger, hurt, pain, fear and sadness that I have felt even more so in the last week versus the last few months. I almost hesitated in sharing this episode because it was initially meant to announce how excited I was to share with my listeners some good news about launching my own business as BLACK woman and the purpose behind it. Almost.

If there is one thing that I have learned and seen with my very own eyes as of lately, it’s that we as a people are strong and able to push forward during uncertain times. We have the power to fight for what is right and to do it with a smile on our face in joy in our hearts despite the pain that in inflicted on us daily. We have the right to be happy and enjoy this God-given life as much as the next. I say that to say, yes recognize those feelings, do your part, do what’s right, but don’t let the evil of this world steal your moments, your happiness, your prosperity as you push forward to the prize and purpose that awaits you. What now?
