Have you been censoring yourself?
If you’ve ever softened your language, felt imposter syndrome, or kept quiet when you had a message screaming inside of you, buckle up for a pep talk.
We’re breaking down 5 common self-censorship blocks in adventure storytelling and how to break through them, including:
“I don’t have a good ending yet.”
“I’m afraid I’ll change my mind later.”
“I need to soften my language first.”
“I don’t think society is ready to talk about this.”
“An expert could share this better than I can.”
Angie shares how our volunteer Trailblazers are using their voices for change, and offers experiments so you can practice what she calls “using your outside voice.”
Ready to use your voice for the cause? Join us for Trailtober, an October trail challenge to spend more time outdoors while supporting other girls and women!
It’s getting colder and darker as we enter the fall season. Trailtober is your motivation to keep getting outdoors and moving your body. Your mission? Log 10 hours on trail during the month of October. Whatever you fundraise will go directly to wilderness scholarships for girls and women.
Or, submit a personal essay for Field Notes, our episodes featuring your stories about how nature changed you. Email angie@cairnproject.org with your topic idea.
