Tapping Into Your ‘Bigness’: A Conversation with Bishop O.C. Allen III

Before becoming a religious leader, human rights activist, and entrepreneur, Bishop O.C. Allen III worked vigorously to gain access to prolific institutions - the ones that teach young men to be the best they can be.

And despite loving these places and their overall mission, he quickly realized that these institutions accepted only part of him - rejecting portions of himself that were too special to hide. And after trying to fit in, he quickly found himself remodeling the walls of these ‘safe spaces,’ instead painting them to the color of his own identity.

In this season finale, listen as he explains how he was able to amplify his mission via The Vision Church - creating an inclusive environment that teaches others to lean into their vulnerability, turning it into a superpower – one that encourages people to live in their truth, rather than die in a lie. Bishop Allen teaches us that the space within ourselves is the most important – because regardless of status, sexuality or circumstance, we are powerful and already enough, exactly as we are.
