Dr. Martin Luther King’s legacy of courage, passion and commitment to equality lives on in real life and the big screen in the movie, Selma, which was nominated for best picture of the year last week.

As we honor Dr. King today, he reminds us of the importance of finding our voice, living our values and not becoming invisible.

It is often difficult to speak up, especially when others don’t agree or we know they will not like what we have to say. We might become marginalized or seen as a trouble maker.

Yet being true to ourselves and what we believe is essential to our spirit and energy. Dr. King shows us the impact that courage, truth and persistence have when they join forces.

Finding your voice starts with the little things. You can speak up in a meeting, advocate for yourself and your team or promote your ideas.

Find your voice and have the courage to be visible and seen.

Thank you Dr. King!
