inspired by: jane fonda

In recent months, I have thought a lot about what I do not want in my life anymore. For example, what no longer serves me, what I want to avoid, and what makes life harder. However, I realized the other day that it is equally important to think about what I do want in my life. Jane Fonda falls into the latter category. I have been a fan of hers for many years, thanks to her film career, workout videos, books, and remarkable advocacy work. She has never shied away from using her voice and standing up for what she believes in. If only there were more people like Jane in this world! She has truly made it a better place. In an effort to prioritize what is meaningful, an inspiration post was the obvious choice. Here is a little Jane Fonda fabulousness....


Still looking for a little inspiration? Some motivation? Hope? Be sure to check out the speech that Jane Fonda gave recently while accepting her Lifetime Achievement Award at the 31st Annual SAG Awards. It was such a meaningful moment. 


“What we, actors, create is empathy. Our job is to understand another human 
being so profoundly that we can touch their souls. 
And make no mistake, empathy is not weak or woke. 
By the way, woke just means you give a damn about other people.”
- Jane Fonda

Are you a fan of Jane Fonda and her incredible career? Who has been inspiring you lately?

  7. What a wonderful reflection on the impact Jane Fonda has had! She’s such a strong example of someone who lives with intention and purpose, and it’s inspiring to think about how she’s balanced her career, advocacy, and personal growth. Her ability to reinvent herself, whether it was with her workout videos or her activism, speaks volumes about her resilience and drive.

    I love the idea of thinking about not just what we want to avoid, but also what we want to invite into our lives—especially people like Jane, whose influence continues to inspire and push for positive change.
