Angry At The Right Things

Bronwyn and Alecia Jacobson, host of Spirit of a Badass podcast, have a raw and honest conversation about anger. We span from the personal to global, discussing the fallout of our lives, families and society, and everything in between. 

Starting at minute 31 we move outward, discussing healthy responses to what is happening in our world today, reflecting on how to cultivate hope while simultaneously feeling our anger at the darkness.

Forgiveness is a choice not to foster hatred, but it doesn't mean we don't feel it when we think of the person... or ride by their house. The relationship between hate, love and forgiveness is more nuanced than we've been taught, and is designed to give us wisdom.

Bronwyn shares with Katie the profound conversation she had with her mother about parental rejection, exploring the paradox of how children desperately need their parents but don’t know it – as parents are also the source of their pain. Bronwyn offers insights on being a secure base for our children.

A deep conversation between a therapist and psychiatrist about sexual trauma, emotional neglect, shame, and the healing process. They discuss the complexity of sexual abuse, the trauma behind the trauma, and how to break cycles of shame.

A personal shame story that nearly killed me, but instead birthed wisdom.

To be fully alive, we must guard against and remove every trace of death. We have to recognize shame for what it is, and how it stealthily spreads from one person to another, like contagion. We learn to fight the shame but not its host, simply by having our eyes open, and rejecting it when it’s thrown our way. Instead, we learn to be a mirror, held up to kindly but firmly bring accountability and shine light into darkness.
