Rise Above the Suffering Loop
Episode description
“There is so much investment made in your brokenness and your woundedness. There is so much investment made in the drama of the human condition. How will you disrupt that in 2021?” – Lola Wright
2020 was a year of tipping points - from a global pandemic to toxic politics to an awakening around the hundreds of years of racial injustice in the United States. The unworkability that has existed in human consciousness is beginning to surface. This is good news. While awakening is upon us, human beings remain largely pushed by pain, and you may even find yourself attempting to make resolutions, goals, intentions, and commitments based on a kind of intolerant state.
On this episode of Find Your Fierce & Loving, I’m asking you to step out of the loop of suffering. As one of my great mentors and friends, Michael Beckwith says, "pain pushes and vision pulls.”
We need to get curious about a life pulled by vision rather than a life driven by adrenalized goals, commitments, and resolutions. Join me. Let’s do this New Year a bit differently. Let’s tap into your fierce and loving.
- (00:41) - Pulled by vision
- (08:21) - Cosmic perfection
- (13:39) - Manufactured suffering
- (22:18) - Level up your community
- (26:46) - Disrupt the inertia
- (29:25) - You are glorious

Chicago born and built, Lola grew up in wealth and privilege, yet always sensed something was missing. She sought out aliveness and freedom in music, immersing herself in the hip hop and house music scenes of 90s Chicago. After finding herself on her own at 23, as the mother of two young children, she became determined to create a new experience.
Lola is an ordained minister with a gift for weaving together the mystical and material, she served for many years as the CEO of Bodhi Center, an organization committed to personal transformation, collective awakening, conscious activism, and community-building.
