Episode 24: How do Humans Heal from a Collective Abandonment Wound?
EPISODE SUMMARY
Today, I want to talk about humanity’s place in the world and making sense of reality in times of tumult and suffering. I’ve had an internal dilemma about how informed to stay about what’s happening in the world. Consuming the news, we undesirably become dervishes of fear from the content oversaturation. Turning away from the content overload, we innocently attempt for self-care, which almost always has a tail of guilt smacking us in the face.
So what’s one to do when these two extremes are at play? How do we keep a pulse on reality, while also tending to the impacts of overconsumption on our psyche, emotional states, energy system, and physical body?
In today’s episode, I want to offer a few perspectives on rising in a time of crisis, healing humanity’s shared abandonment wound, and shifting from the mindset of scarcity to one of sovereignty. I’ll also reveal what I’ve been cooking for you with my new program, so tune in and let’s riff together on these big topics.
