The term "decolonize" is very much a word of the time. When I learned about Meredith Keith-Chirch's coaching practice, Decolonizing Your Health, I knew that we'd have a great conversation about unlearning in regards to health. In this episode, we also touch on schooling, technology, and language.
I appreciate how Meredith lives and breaths her work. She is doing her own unlearning as she guides her clients through theirs. While completely decolonizing certain aspects of our lives may seem unattainable or unrealistic, Meredith shares how we all can take steps to re-evaluate our decisions.
Ultimately, it is not about perfectionism or being right in our decisions. It is about choosing for ourselves.
