Mary Oliver teaches us that 'Joy is not made to be a crumb'. In this episode we consider that joy, pleasure and aliveness might actually be a juicy cake, covered in icing.
This episode explores how we hold, define and practice pleasure in our own lives. We talk about the politics of pleasure and reclaiming it as our birthright from the reigns of the chief thief of our joy - capitalism.
We hope this episode places pleasure back where it belongs, in the small, micro moments of your day-to-day lives and in those moments re-remember what it means to be human.

"Having the courage to feel your own needs and also to trust those feelings amounts to having the guts to stand up publicly and demand a different politics, one suitable to the demands of aliveness.”

The Body Is Not An Apology: The Power of Radical Self-Love
“Concepts like self-acceptance and body neutrality are not without value. When you have spent your entire life at war with your body, these models offer a truce. But you can have more than a cease-fire. You can have radical self-love because you are already radical self-love.”
