Seeing Me – Understanding The Self thumbnail

Seeing Me – Understanding The Self

05/21/2021 31 min 23 sec

We look at the need for an accurate self concept - we have to own really who we are right now and stop pretending to be what we are not putting effort into being or becoming. We look at the need for self awareness - the more self aware we are the more accurate we can be with our self as we stand today, This give us the knowledge of where we are and what gaps are keeping us for who we want to be! Then and only then can we have a positive self esteem. We cannot have a positive self esteem from pretending to be something - because WE know we are not that thing - which makes us have to acknowledge at some dark moment we are NOT that thing. Then we need to keep practicing self awareness to understand - we are in the process of "becoming" our best self - and the process is NEVER finished - we just get better and better with time!

Warning the S word is used in this podcast which is a very derogatory term for native women. This words rough literal translation is the very harmful curse word (the C word). I chose not to bleep it out because I wanted you to hear the pain in Souta's voice to better understand the pain associated with it for Native Women. We are not calling anyone this word but rather talk about its harmful effects much as will do at time with slurs like the N word, or in our community the R word to better understand the impact of these harmful patterns of pain.

Counsel Culture Over Cancel Culture

07/26/2020 43 min 40 sec

Counsel Culture is more transformational than Cancel Culture. In this episode we will look at how I should have been canceled in the past with SEVERAL examples BUT we will learn how Counsel Culture made me redeemable! We examine the problematics of Cancel Culture and deconstruct it as a tool of whiteness and colonial thinking special thanks to Michelle Dew for this thought! We also look at the idea of Counsel Culture as anti-ist in nature and a form of indigenized thought (not decolonized thought thank you to Charissa Sundust) to fight for equity. We look at the notion of Counsel Culture, and why we need it, as well as how to engage in it to separate ideas from the person from with we are in counsel. We talk about steps to take to engage with Counsel Culture – we recognize that it is in fact VERY HARD. But we also see when we learn more about Counsel Culture we learn more how toxic ideas infect and hurt others and how to heal others into wholeness together with us.
