Manage episode 407484670 series 3562580
As humans, we are biologically wired to avoid pain and suffering. And yet, acheiving sustainable happiness, contentment, self-love, acceptance and joy happens when we go through the pain and suffering that we all experience (on different levels), not despite it. Today we journey in conversation with guest and my dear friend, Stacey Camacho, and explore topics that impact us as individuals and as a collective. Stacey helps us to unpack and understand the impacts of colonial and interngenerational trauma, how our culture impacts our self-esteem and self-worth and how we can utilize different therapies and practices to gently create a safe home within ourselves that will trickle outward and positively impact the greater community. We touch upon identifying collective trauma and what we can do about creating safer, healthier and more equitable communities around the world.

It is her intention that these will be a catalyst for new levels of healing, growth, and transformation throughout her entire community.
