Heeeyyy Village! Cocoa Butter and Communion is back and I am back with my lovely guest, Thee Marilyn Julia Brown! In this episode her and I discuss her progressive Catholic upbringing, the role of spirituality in therapy, cultural identity, and disordered eating and its impact on Black women. Our loving dialogue emphasizes the need for therapists to protect their peace while navigating chaotic times and the quest for liberation. 

Marilyn Julia Brown is a Licensed Marriage Family Therapist, registered yoga teacher, writer, musician, and energy healing practitioner located in Southern California. Marilyn firmly believes in the liberation of all beings and works specifically to liberate Black folks across the globe because she believes none of us are free until we are all free! Her offerings are culturally and LGBTQ+ affirming and Marilyn is committed to decolonizing the mental health field and wellness spaces to bring true equity across all marginalized populations. Marilyn utilizes her talents for writing, music, and speaking to cultivate spaces for healing and liberation. She firmly believes true healing must address the mind, body, and spirit and her mission is to connect each person her work touches to the powerful well of healing energy that lives within them to promote collective healing across the planet.

Marilyn Julia is reading "The Witching Hour" by Anne Rice 

I am still reading "Caste" by Isabel Wilkerson (the book is long but so good) and a bunch of articles for school.

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist

It’s 1996 in rural North Carolina, and an oddball crew makes history when they pull off America’s third largest cash heist. But it’s all downhill from there. Join host Johnny Knoxville as he unspools a wild and woolly tale about a group of regular ‘ol folks who risked it all for a chance at a better life. CrimeLess: Hillbilly Heist answers the question: what would you do with 17.3 million dollars? The answer includes diamond rings, mansions, velvet Elvis paintings, plus a run for the border, murder-for-hire-plots, and FBI busts.
