It was so good for the soul!! But, GODDAMNIT!! I meant to talk about your walking challenge and how fucking brilliant it is, and it totally escaped me. ๐ฉ I'm so sorry!!
I'm ready for "the battle of the sexes" when you are!! ๐
๐ so great. My friend and I were just talking about parenting in the 90's being led by Christian leaders like Dr James Dobson which have the unspoken effect of breaking a child's spirit and will so that they were subservient to the parents. This is so opposite to how we raise our son.
I remember with the directional arrows on grocery floors during covid. I was a new mom with a new born babe and was honestly afraid of getting too close to people. My husband wouldn't pay any attention to the arrows and it gave me such anxiety to pass a person who was travelling in the right direction down the aisle that I would have a panic attack. Tell me what's more important: following arrows or nervous system regulation?
I've heard that women particularly suffer from the bitch, the witch and the whore wound. Those women who speak up for themselves, who aren't subservient, who are empowered, who light up the room - they are often insulted as a bitch, a witch or a whore because the rest of us women are so insecure that seeing someone so fully embodying their power is threatening to us. Let's out-grow this, shall we??
That Dr. James Dobson junk. Forgot about all of that being on the radio constantly.
And yeah, attacking women who stand out is dumb. Nothing makes me happier than hanging out with confident, funny people-- male or female. We don't need any pushed-down, repressed people.
Gurl. Bitch. Right here. ๐ It broke my fucking spirit for DECADES. All because I naturally free think. Iโm NEVER getting back in the box, and if thatโs the label you want to chase me around with a staple gun withโฆ go for it. That says more about you than anything about me.
You protect that nervous system and you use that horizontal space. ALWAYS nervous system first. Fuck these ridiculous rules that arenโt rules, but control. ๐ซถ Thank you for hanging with us today!!! ๐ค
โNot guiding, not explaining, not fixing - just holding space with presence and trust.โ - This is unbelievably powerful and something our culture regularly resists. We are led to believe that life is about tidy endings & simple explanations. Your approach is incredibly refreshing and so needed on this chaotic world.
Awww ๐ฅน thanks, sweetie!! I'm just sick of losing myself + my kindreds to shit we never wanted or asked for. I'm out here trying to make chaos normal. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
Thanks soooo much for catching this replay. It was soooo nice to get a man's perspective on all of this shit. ๐ซถ
Such an amazing talk! Especially love the masculine point of view! I spend so much time immersed in the womenโs point of view of everything. So refreshing!!
Right??! I love hearing a manโs POV. I miss that from my corporate days. Itโs funny how much impact it is to get both perspectives. I usually identify with a lot of it, too. ๐คทโโ๏ธ
I really liked your discussion topics. When I met Tim and his wife and friends for a drink one night, we inevitably landed on all the tough life topics. It's almost like the floodgates opened as soon as one person mentioned an issue. So important to have important discussions!
Had a blast on this one. I love these jazz-type conversations where you have no idea where you're gonna end up. Thanks for the chat!

I might have needed a break from talking about walking lol
Thanks for making me feel less bad about it! ๐
LOL at jazz-type. I'm picturing jazz hands now.
Of course, now I'm doing jazz hands to my foster kittens.
I've done jazz-hands at Walmart. My wife was embarrassed
๐ She just needs to out embarrass YOU. Let her know I've got LOTS of ideas.

I'm bummed that I tuned in late but it's awesome that you two linked! Best topic ever!!
It was sooo nice to finally talk to Tim! I hope it's not the last.

Right?! Those are the kinda dinners I live for. I love when virtual strangers can get into the deep shit. Iโm coming to the next one. ๐
Navigating midlife here full throttle โ๏ธ
Right there with you... and not doing it standing up!! ๐
