Let The Healing Continue
Caline Shares
In light of the recent events impacting our nation, what advice would you give to people in order to help them navigate the uncertainty?
The advice I would give people in order to help them navigate the uncertainty is to pause, to pray, to focus on self-care and to invest in knowledge. Feed your spirit, body, and mind positively.
Please share one or two available resources that can help people right now.
The Bible – The Ultimate Resource. My guiding life scripture is found in Psalm 46. He says, “Be still and know that I am God, I will be exalted among the nations, I will be exalted in the earth”
Psalms 46:10 As a faith believer, I found the one scripture that gave me hope at a time when all I wanted to do is die. Find that scripture fervently --- hold on to it like your life depends on it –- because your life does.
What is your personal mission in life?
My personal mission in life is to lead and move others confidently from financial fear and frustration to financial freedom and legacy through mastering their mindset and their money; ultimately impacting, influencing, and transforming humanity.
What is one of the biggest challenges you have overcome?
Days after my 21st birthday (October 1996), I became paralyzed. One of the biggest challenges I had to overcome was mastering my mind. Thoughts of suicide consistently invaded my thoughts during that time where I was completely bed-ridden (for almost 3 months) and in recovery (for another 9 months) thereafter.
What was one action that helped you overcome this challenge?
The one action that helped me overcome this challenge was mastering my mind through prayer and meditation. It was the most critical action that moved me from succumbing to thoughts of death and suicide to life and the power of mastering my mindset.
How do you define leadership?
The short answer is influence. I define leadership as influencing others and adding value to others by serving. Leadership to me ultimately transforms lives through service to others, being a clear representation of what you desire to see in others and leading others to become who they are purposed to be.
What advice would you give to someone that is ashamed to share their story?
The advice that I would give someone who is ashamed to share their story is multifold. I would offer the following:
1. There is value in your story, that your story releases their voice and that you have the power to release and heal yourself from shame and judgement by sharing your story with others. When you heal yourself, you heal others.
2. Telling your story openly, owning it and showing the journey, releases healing, forgiveness, freedom, and others to speak up; ultimately creating a safe space for others to share their story.
3. Telling your story creates community built on authentic connection and support.
4. Telling your story breaks generational cycles.
5. Because some topics are loaded with judgment, shame, and stigma, give yourself patience and grace to when and how you tell your story.
