Today with Goddess Carroll, founder of Sunseed Community which practices collective healing with body-energy work, including somatic abolition. We discuss topics from sex to who we are as a human species. As serious as it gets at times, the episode is filled with giggles and laughs.
We cover:
• Decolonising our minds and our bodies.
• Ancestral vs generational trauma as in nature versus nurture.
• Our thoughts on the terminologies of diversity, equity and inclusion and the faults we see in having to use those terms at all.
• Being careful not to reverse-shame ‘default’ bodies as in skinny and white because no one chooses how they’re born.
• Not putting ourselves in a box, regardless of what anybody says.
• How we are all connected.
• Soulful sex versus performative disconnected sex.
• Dismantling relationship anarchy.
• We end the conversation with a philosophical chat about life.

• Recognising red flags.
• Love bombing versus when a healthy man knows very early on you’re the one.
• Being the muse, not the mother.

When being broke pushed her to the idea of doing a yard sale, Haley realised the only items of value (other than her phone and laptop) were gifts from her exes, that’s how the idea of her play and subsequent book ‘The Ex-Boyfriend Yard Sale’ came to be. With the help of a mathematician, she created a formula [for the Cost of Love] that takes into account all the ways we invest or don’t, into our romantic relationships and spit out an accurate price for the material things we’re left with when the romance dies.
We go over:
• Can you put a price on love?
• Is love worth the heartbreaks and disappointments?
• The concept of sunk- cost bias (or pot committed in poker) applied to relationships.
• Why stay-at-home wives and mothers should not be free labour.
• How very traditional men understand the value a woman brings to their lives.
• You cannot control what people are going to think about you.
