I started in Santa Cruz, CA at a Women’s Leadership Conference. It was the type of sisterhood connection I love to submerge myself in to. I felt deep connections with women I’d never even met. There was so much learning and intensity that after the first day I felt like I had a hangover and I hadn’t even drank. Morning two as my girlfriend and I headed out of our hotel room I put on my sunglasses, even though it was cloudy and overcast. I didn’t want to engage with anyone yet. I still needed to be inward not outward. Ever notice that when we really put our energy out in a big way that we also have to allow time to go within? That’s me. I can put myself out into the world in a big way, and then I have to honor the part of me that wants to go inward and recharge and be quiet. I’m learning how to manage my energy in better ways. When we put ourself out in a way that is connecting with and being present with hundreds of people one needs to know one's limits. I’m learning. I often just want to give all of myself and I know I can’t do that.

ARE YOU AN ABSOLUTIST?! CAN THAT CHANGE?
My sister Sarah used this phrase while I was interviewing her...absolutist. It means exactly what it says: there is no room for gray, it’s either black or white. My sister has been a self-proclaimed absolutist for a long time and is now declaring herself cured from the judgment of it all. Today’s podcast and video interview is about sisterhood, judgement, control issues, growing up, and more. When the topic came up over Christmas about eating vegan or vegetarian or omnivore or pescitarian, I knew there would be some alternative view points. Alternative meaning mine and her’s. Sure enough we had differing thoughts. I eat plant-based about 95% of my life. I have an occasional couple of bites of my husbands burger or fish and then I’m satisfied. Back to my plants. My body just feels aligned when I eat this way. Sarah proclaimed this could not happen if I claimed to be a vegan. It was all or nothing.

RACIAL BIAS, HOW IS IT SHOWING UP IN YOUR WORLD?
“White privilege is not necessarily about being white. It has nothing to do with the color of your skin. It’s about the fact that there is a power structure in place and has been for generations that affords certain people the luxury of never having to think about what they look like in terms of how they are treated by others. But for another part of the population it is inescapable to know that how you look and are perceived by others determines how you are treated. This is white privilege.” Delara Marchbank Race, Identity, skin color, and culture are very complex topics. The words Racial Bias might even sting to read them. In today’s episode I’m joined by my friend, yoga instructor, and activist Delara Marchbank. Coming from a background of Persian decent Delera’s learned the nature of racial bias and white privilege. Growing up being of race and color other than white is very different from growing up white.
GENDER IDENTITY PART 2, EXPLORING THIS TOPIC FURTHER
In today’s show I continue my conversation with Danny Neifert on Gender Identity. In this second part of our two part series we dive into the basic moving parts of us as human beings. If you missed part one of this series check it out here. We’re all born in the physical skin of either a male or female body. Yet it’s often discombobulating if we realize the shell we’re born into isn’t the person that’s on the inside. When we identify with the gender type we’re born into it categorically easy to navigate the world. When we’re born into a gender that we don’t identify with life can present some major challenges. And what if we suddenly find ourself attracted to someone of the same gender when throughout our life we’ve identified with the opposite sex. This can also be a big shake up. Listen in today and let me know your feedback. I'd love to hear your thoughts!
