In this episode, Geordee and Sonali talks about:
Reclaiming Dignity: The conversation explores the journey of reclaiming dignity, breaking free from societal conditioning that prioritizes service to others over honoring one's own essence and autonomy.
Trust is the glue of movements: Strong relationships built on genuine trust are essential for building power and achieving transformative change.
Historical trauma: Systems of oppression like white supremacy, capitalism, colonialism, and patriarchy leave embodied imprints that affect how we connect with others.
Tempering the Vessel: Sonali and Geordee delve into the metaphor of "tempering the vessel," emphasizing the importance of cultivating a strong and receptive body-mind connection to harness one's purpose.
