So What Now? with Carla and Dex

EP 221: Learning How To Receive (Ft Antoinette)


Listen Later

Ever wondered how to live authentically and explore personal growth, even when it shakes up your world? Antoinette from Around the Way Curls joins us to discuss the profound journey of self-discovery and the importance of being true to oneself. We also share our transition to virtual recording, reflecting on how it has surprisingly fostered deeper connections. And, for a bit of fun and enlightenment, we recount a memorable experience at a sex club event, celebrating body acceptance and the essential practice of consent.

Lastly, we delve into the intricacies of aging, cultural identity, and the nurturing roles we play in our communities. From navigating bicultural backgrounds to finding healthy relationships after being single, we explore how these experiences shape our lives and values. We emphasize the importance of mutual support, shared values, and living with integrity
