What happens when you speak out for justice and its costs you everything?

In this raw and intimate conversation, Michelle MiJung Kim (author of The Wake Up and host of I Feel That Way Too) joins us to explore the aftermath of speaking up for Palestine in a world that often punishes courage.

We explore:

• Losing clients and credibility after speaking up for Palestine
• Grieving the collapse of a once-successful career and public identity
• Shame, silence, and the tension between self-love and social impact
• Navigating burnout, belonging, and friendship ruptures in justice spaces
• Rebuilding worthiness outside of productivity and applause

Whether you’ve ever felt lost, unworthy, or unsure how to show up, you’re not alone. This conversation is for you.
