For this Podcast Episode, there is an emphasis on analyzing Spiritual wealth, Inner-generational trauma, cycles of violence, sense of self + exploring the term: Death. We chat about humans being part of the natural system, facing hardship, the importance of how you talk/ treat yourself. Mental health awareness, suicide awareness + ways of moving with empathy. Normalize creating a culture of caring instead of degrading. Normalize how kindness is seen, as it is a sign of strength/strong self-discipline. As we share the phrase “Be kind, for everyone you meet is fighting a hard battle". Racism is taught, but so is fighting for justice. We dive into emotional intelligence, social skills, self-awareness, self-regulation, motivation + interdisciplinary. How forms of hate are seen in racism, as we say, “you cannot tell me something about myself that is not true”, + it’s okay to not agree with one but not if it goes against an individual. The beauty of allowing pain to pass your body. Gender + cultural expectations. Exploring the Inner Child, Social Media, advocating for rights, getting involved in voting.
