Compartmentalising is stopping us from having the difficult conversations we need to have. It allows us to live with a false sense of security, allows us to hide behind our privilege and keeps us stuck. When we compartmentalise we try to get away with saying 'That's another topic.', which is sometimes just another way of saying 'That is not my problem.', based on it currently not affecting me. It hurts others and ourselves and I think it is costing us more than we realise. Start observing when this happens and why you think we do this? Send me your ideas on Instagram @picnic.on.the.moon. :)
