27 Practice: Compartmentalizing in a Healthy Way with Je Naé Taylor of BYP100 Healing & Safety Council

Join us for a personal practice from Je Naé Taylor about compartmentalizing in a healthy way. How do we organize our thoughts and emotions around conflict so we can do what we need to do in the moment, and carve out space to process it thoroughly at an appropriate time? You don’t need any specific supplies or space, just listen wherever you are.

Referenced in this practice:  “I am inhaling. I am exhaling.” -- prompt from Thich Nhat Hanh

You can download the corresponding conversation (27 Interventional Healing and Accountability) where JeNaè Taylor & Kai M Green join us to talk about interventional healing and accountability practices - aka what to do when harm occurs in our organizations. They share about how they’ve built out intentional practices that anticipate potential harm, how they use role plays and scenarios to come to agreements and processes together before situations happen, and their commitment to supporting and including harm-doers in their restorative processes.

The previous three episodes elaborate on our conversation with BYP Healing and Safety Council, focusing in on both preventional and interventional healing & accountability.
