Insecurity at Last: How in Redefining Safety, We Actually Create It

from Crying in My Jacuzzi with Dana Balicki Hosted by dana balicki

Crybabies, welcome back to the jacuzzi-verse! In episode 2, let's explore the boundaries between security and insecurity, safety and unsafety. You're invited to embrace security as an illusion—a product sold to us, someone else's imagination of a limited version of ourselves, a way to keep us obedient and clinging to comfort—because then we can start to create our own definitions. Life-affirming, collective, nourishing, weird, radically caring, self-trusting, connective, uncomfortable, desirous, resilient, and adaptive! And look, security's weaponization has real consequences for many individuals and communities under threat from people & systems that use safety and security as mechanisms for control, which means that dismantling those systems by releasing ourselves from their definitions is more important than ever. Whew! Hop in, crybabies and let's take a quick spin around the insecurity block and see where we end up!
