Podcast Episodes

If you have a sneaking suspicion that you’re not coaching in the way you truly want to, you’re in the right place. As I’ve fleshed out my body of work, the ways in which different marginalized identities or communities experience systems of oppression that intersect have become more and more evident, and this is where the framework of intersectional coaching has been essential for coaching at a deeper level for not just my clients, but in my self-coaching too.

Join me this week as I show you how our brains actively filter, edit, and mediate everything we perceive and think, and why this is not something to freak out about. I’m sharing a useful way to frame this so you can create more of what you want, and what the advanced level of this work looks like.

I sat down with Kelsea and Racheal from The Thick Thighs Save Lives podcast to discuss not only how your brain needs training and conditioning just like your muscles do, but we’re also diving into feminism, the pandemic, living with authentic confidence, and generally unfucking ourselves.

This week, I’m introducing you to a concept I call the Internal Contradiction Error. Whether you want to be an entrepreneur, have a non-monogamous relationship, or anything else, this concept addresses the experience of wanting something without any of the inherent challenges and complications that come along with it. This is a brain error everyone makes, and it’s getting in your way.

The role of self-love and self-care can often be misinterpreted to sound like face masks, bubble baths and self-indulgent acts that focus solely on the individual and has no impact on social change. But true liberation is an inside job that starts with the individual. So, what’s more dangerous to the oppressive forces that try to keep us down than a person or community who has freed themselves from this internalization?

Today’s episode is a little bit meta. We’re talking about thinking about our thoughts, subconscious blocks, and both sides of belief. This is actually a huge issue in thought work. Often, we actually don’t even realize that our thoughts about our thinking matter.
