In this groundbreaking archive episode of Attunement, Lauren sits down with poet, activist, philosopher, author Sonya Renee Taylor to explore the transformative power of radical self-love.

Together, they discuss how personal and collective healing begins with embracing the messy, imperfect parts of ourselves and dismantling the oppressive systems that perpetuate shame and self-doubt on both personal and collective levels. Sonya shares profound insights from her book The Body Is Not an Apology, offering a blueprint for cultivating self-acceptance and divesting from systems of oppression.

Lauren and Sonya dive into the intersections of personal growth, societal reckoning, and the liberation that comes from belonging to ourselves. They challenge listeners to question external validation, embrace their shadow selves, and reimagine what it means to live in alignment with love and authenticity.

This episode is a call to action for radical transformation—within ourselves and in the world around us.
