Transmission: Why This Podcast Exists

What if the stories we inherit are shaping the worlds we live in –without us even realizing it?In this first transmission of Innerverse Dialogues, Dr. L'Tomay introduces the heart behind the podcast and the research that gave rise to it.This is not a space for performance or polished answers. This is a space to practice the inner work out loud at the intersection of faith, language, justice, and identity.Grounded in restorative justice discourse, lived experience, and spiritual reflection, this episode explores how systems shape the language we use and how that language, in turn, shapes our understanding of belonging, worth, and power.Because if we don’t examine the stories beneath our words… we risk reproducing the very harm we seek to dismantle.In this episode:Why Innerverse Dialogues was createdHow language shapes justice, belonging, and identityThe origin of JOY — Justice Operating in You®How systems operate both around us and within usWhy faith and reflection are essential to truth-tellingAn introduction to the Truth Transmission SequenceThe Truth Transmission Sequence:Receive → Reflect → Reckon → ReworldA practice for examining the language and narratives shaping your reality.Key Insight:The stories we inherit shape the language we use.
