Winston is the founder of VoiceStory, a non-profit organization that is creating social connections, facilitating personal healing, and promoting community building. You can learn more about Winston, his organization, and how to connect with him below. \n\nWhen I first heard Winston\u2019s personal story that led him to start his non-profit, I recognized he was someone who had something of great value to offer the world and I wanted him for our show. He has broken through the prison of dysfunctional stories by learning to listen to his inner wisdom, and by embracing the darkness so he can move into the light. \n\nWinston\u2019s raw and real stories are relatable and leave us feeling that we too can get past the prison guard we created of our own self-imposed cell. \n\n\n\nHere are some highlights from this episode:\n\nSuppressing our emotions\n\nThe power of stories created from past trauma\n\nFormulating negative stories about who you are and what that triggers\n\nThe importance of embracing the dark as well as the light\n\nCompassion vs love - coming from a place of striving to understand\n\nBeing seen by others AND yourself\n\nThe impact of wearing a persona that is not true to who you are \n\nQuestions to ask yourself: \u201cWHAT do I want and WHY do I want it so bad.\u201d \n\nUnderstanding a true want and where it comes from. \n\nFighting and undoing the conditioning\n\nLearning to \u201cfollow the nudges\u201d that guide you to your best day, your best life\n\nUnderstand all of us are the same","thumbnail_width":300,"thumbnail_height":300,"thumbnail_url":"https://artwork.captivate.fm/2b7e69d8-10e0-44a9-b896-53e61f3372ef/K8nJfa_P1ms8dGxgongoSnF1.png"}
