Am I Being a Dick?
Watch the talk
Life is more complicated and more complex than goodies and baddies.
The more I talked about politics, the more I talked sort of tricky ethical situations or confusing personal situations that sort of real kind of scary stuff, the more I found people actually responded and related and I felt encouraged to keep going further down that path.
What I’m really proud of is that my personal work and my values and my job are the same thing, they’re totally entwined.
There’s a cost to making ethical decisions and I think you have to be realistic about.
We shouldn’t feel like we’re trapped into doing things against our values, there’s always ways in which we can try and help - whether they’re little or they’re big.
We sometimes walk along looking at each tiny little step on the ground, and before you know it you look up and be like, how did I get here?
The more I put my personal views into my work, the stronger my work got. I wish I had done that sooner in a way.
