First of two parts.
It is impossible to summarize any of these amazing conversations into a few, simple paragraphs. My meeting with Meg ran so long that I had to break it into two episodes. And I still feel that we were just scratching the surface. Part two will air next week.
In the meantime, I could tell you that our topics included: butchering chickens, long-term illness, sexuality, trauma dumping, feminism, and trying to fit in. But that leaves dozens of topics unmentioned and still doesn’t describe our conversation.
Meg graciously shares how she came to an understanding of her family system, religion of origin, and many other topics that once defined her worldview. Her story of deconstructing eighty different things has helped her learn to hold things loosely. Her knowledge, beliefs, even values are constantly changing and she has learned to embrace the unknown, be open to new everythings, and she has given herself permission to rock the boat in her advocacy on important issues.
Meg is wise, insightful, warm, caring, and a truly remarkable woman. I really appreciate getting to know her and have learned a lot from her perspective. I know you will too.
Enjoy part one!
Topics Include: Deconstruction, hard work, top values, the comfort of holding things loosely, tone-police, feminism under the guise of patriarchy, embracing the unknown, and the importance of preventative care in relationships.
