Fighting Against Injustice with Victoria Albina


Victoria Albina was sick of living from a place of habit and
conditioning. A coach, nurse practitioner, and solopreneur, among
many others, Victoria has become a passionate advocate for
putting in the work when it comes to building businesses that
address social justice issues. 



Getting Honest About Your Bias


Victoria believes that getting honest with yourself about your
own biases is the first step to doing the uncomfortable work of
acceptance. The truth is, everybody has some bias, thanks to the
conditioning that we were raised with, and it is up to us to
check our entitlement and learn to be the watcher of our own
minds. 





Understanding that being called in or called out is actually a
gift, acknowledging the unintended consequences of your words and
actions, and getting comfortable with changing your opinion are
all great ways to start improving the way you relate to the
world. 





Viewing Your Work Through The Lens of Equity


Healthcare providers and solopreneurs are often some of the most
demanding people on themselves. 





It’s important to remember that none of us are running perfect
businesses and that rather than perfection, our goal should be
continual improvement. 





Victoria shares how we can only take our clients as deep as we’re
willing to go ourselves. 





This means doing the hard, uncomfortable work of addressing our
shortcomings, doing our own healing, and caring for ourselves.





By filling up your own cup from a place of service, you can
better take care of your clients and community. 











Is there somewhere in your business that you feel you may
be falling short when it comes to social justice issues? What
practical ways are you working to make your business more
inclusive and accessible? Leave me a voice
message with your answer here.
