We scream for celebrities.
We repost luxury.
We envy the curated lives.
But no one claps for:
• The father who admitted he was struggling.
• The girl who stood up to her own friends.
• The artist who kept creating when no one was watching.
• The co-worker who said “I need help” instead of “I’m fine.”
Today, my friend Joshua Henley, MBA, CSM said it best: “We’re celebrating the wrong things.”
We’ve made fame the ultimate currency.
But fame doesn’t feed the soul.
We’re hypnotized by bling, and blind to bravery.
Let’s flip the script.
