Episode Synopsis

In this episode, Kim and Ann embark on a journey to unpack the impact of deep nervous system intelligence on conversations surrounding anti-racism, anti-colonization, and all discussions related to Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion (EDI).
As we navigate through conversations about EDI, it's common to encounter stormy and unsettling terrain. We witness a pressing need for evolution in how we embrace and celebrate diversity, yet often find ourselves amidst eruptions rather than healing moments. At the heart of transformational dialogue lies a sense of physiological and psychological safety—a foundation upon which we can construct meaningful exchanges. This doesn't imply a demand for absolute safety, but rather the capacity to steady our nervous systems even amid turbulent circumstances. Crucially, by cultivating this inner sanctuary, we extend the invitation for others to find refuge alongside us, fostering an environment conducive to healing and conscious evolution within the realm of Equity, Diversity, and Inclusion.
Throughout this podcast, Kim and Ann share their insights, including the imperative to slow down and assume accountability, the elevation of compassion over judgment to maintain a steady, ventral state, and the significance of connecting with our inner balance, safety, or deeper consciousness—however we may conceptualize it. And finally the necessity of embracing discomfort within these conversations and recognizing that the journey towards healing is one that unfolds over time.
Join us in the conversation.
