When family won't accept help, stop wasting energy on them. Instead, redirect that effort toward strangers in your community who actually want it. The academy's purpose is to make you the person someone needs.
And I got family members that I'm just— I want to help so bad. Like, you guys know what I do. You guys know who I am. You guys know how I live. And there's people in my life that I cannot help. They don't want my help. And you know what I've learned to do? Accept that, that I'm not the one. But I also know that I don't want to waste that energy on people that won't accept it. But I also know that there is somebody else out there that needs the help, that's waiting for the help. And see, that's the most powerful thing about this academy. For you guys is there's somebody out there right now in your hometown and they're struggling and they're suffering. They don't need a doctor. They don't need a lawyer. They don't need a marriage and family therapist with 14 letters after her name. You know who they need? You.
