How do we make an impact without falling into the trap of co-opting ideas or voices that aren’t our own?

In this short hot-take episode, Christina Crowe, RP, reflects on the importance of authenticity, attribution, and integrity in the mental health field and beyond. Drawing on years of professional and lived experience, she challenges us to slow down, acknowledge those who came before us, and recognize the difference between being inspired and taking credit.

This candid reflection unpacks why crediting sources matters, how to avoid performative advocacy, and why real impact depends on trust, reciprocity, and community.

What You’ll Take Away:

Why giving credit is essential for authenticity and trust.
How advocacy without attribution risks hypocrisy and burnout.
The role of process and structure in creating sustainable impact.
Why true community is built on reciprocity — not just taking.
