“Allyship is a way of life. It's a practice of assessing my beliefs, my values, the way that I function, and how that has been influenced by supremacy culture. Taking that data and deciding, ‘what do I need to unlearn that does not align with my desire to walk in allyship?’”-Dr. Jpop
I decided to re-release an epsiode from this summer in light of the recent global attention to the conflict between Palestine and Israel that has been going for a very long time. I am not an expert, nor am I appropriately knowledgeable of this conflict to speak on the specifics; but I did want to share a resource that may help some of you re-center as you walk in allyship in this moment of history.
The tragedies and events of the last few years have provoked many to question how they show up in the world, for themselves and for others. This has led to people speaking up to power more and taking steps to dismantle a culture that does not serve us.
But continuously showing up in advocacy in a triggered state is helpful to no one. So how do we address it?
In this episode, I brought Dr. Lisseth London back to educate us on collective trauma, fight-or-fight advocacy, and what steps we should take to make sure we are staying regulated while showing up for each other.

Neighborhood Action Steps:

Create your own plan for when you are triggered or in a state of burnout and determine who your accountability person will be.
