Meet Patricia Jones! In this episode we’re sitting down to understand Patricia’s experience living as a black woman in America. You’ll also gain a new perspective as you hear her story of walking through multiple divorces (due to some pretty surprising circumstances), raising black children, enduring racial tension, and serving as a therapist in her day job.
Patricia is one of my favorite people both for her lightheartedness and ability to speak the truth from deep wisdom stemming from her own life experiences. As she shares her story in the first half of this episode, you’ll come to understand the immense difficulties she’s endured, which in large part lead her to first going to therapy herself!
In the second half of this episode and without getting too political, we get into a deep discussion around the insurrection at the capital and her experiences living as a black woman in America. You’ll find her perspective here very interesting, as she vulnerably shares her lived experiences while balancing them with a therapist mindset.
Don’t get lost in this story, listen until the end and you’ll be glad you stuck around for such an eye-opening episode. Patricia is SO wise, and I just can’t wait for you to meet her!
