In episode 7. Yes episode 7 not 5, Ms. Aishia, an exceptional therapist and professor, and I talk about navigating life in a world that doesn't seem to want to include everyone. Yes, still in 2024!
We talk about how our experiences in our careers, the corporate world and in life in general, can be seen and interpreted through the lenses of our childhood trauma, intergenerational trauma, microaggressions and sometimes overt racism.
How do we deal with all of that?
I reference two books in my intro, "What My Bones Know: A Memoir of Healing from Complex Trauma" by Stephanie Foo and "They Called Us Exceptional: And Other Lies That Raised Us" by Prachi Gupta, to explain that this is not just a "black" issue.
To all my racialized sisters, I see you and I know we can sometime navigate the same journey, so you are not alone.
This is not an easy topic... So let's please put our biases aside and listen with an open heart and think about our friends, our colleagues and people in our families, that may have experienced some of these very complex and subtle situations.
As always, we're here to foster empowering conversations and Sense Healing Every Day!
