How to self-advocate when you feel out of control

Community Matters Media

Self-advocacy and empowerment are crucial for standing up for oneself and others. In this episode, Jacqui emphasises the need to let go of preconceived notions and prioritise one's own needs and goals. She shares personal struggles with advocating for others' rights while neglecting her own, and she offers small insights for self-help.

Practical advice she offers listeners includes:

· Writing down all key priorities without ordering them.

· Sitting with written priorities, taking time to breathe and reflect.

· Staying focused on what matters most to give energy to move forward.

· Keep the momentum going and celebrate intentions as well as actions.
