Lesson Overview

7.09 – Standing Up Without Becoming the Target: Advocating for yourself or others takes courage, especially when you fear backlash. The goal isn’t to fight every battle—it’s to choose the ones that matter most. Speaking up can mean setting boundaries, reporting injustice, or simply refusing to laugh at hurtful jokes. You don’t have to shout to be strong; calm firmness often changes more hearts. Sometimes silence is power when it protects your energy and safety. Being strategic doesn’t mean being scared; it means being smart. Building allies helps you share the weight of standing up. True leadership balances passion with wisdom. When you choose integrity over approval, you model strength for others. Each act of quiet bravery shifts the culture toward respect and fairness.
