The Tension of Emergence: Thriving in a world that remakes, not breaks

Beyond Traditional Activism: The Medicine of Our Ancestors with Amber McZeal


Listen Later

Are you feeling the limits of activism- specifically in the way we seem to become more polarized and exhausted?

In this episode Jennifer talks with sacred scholar, vocalist and activist Amber McZeal to unpack  how to move into deeper psychic layers that can yield healing and interconnection. Talking about spiritual activism and ancestral healing they also share—

  • Why DEI policies can’t heal the illusion of separation
  • The medicine offered by ancestral lineage healing
  • Why the performativity of allyship gets us into trouble
  • The practice of radical optimism

Tune in for genuine and heart-felt exploration of how to decolonize the psyche so you can nourish your relationship to self, the collective and your activism practice.
