86. Prolonged Adolescence & The Wounds of Liberal Feminism │ Danielle Evans
Manage episode 398648353 series 3476460
It’s not exactly Millennials' fault that many of us are stuck in extended adolescence. We’re bearing a wound around adulthood that didn’t start with our generation. We’re working under fluorescent lighting instead of under the sun, hustling in the city instead of in the small tribes we evolved from, and striving for the “empowerment” the Spice Girls promised. Endocrine disruptors surround us. We work with screens instead of with our hands. The conveniences of living non-biologically are certainly comfortable, but they come with consequences: we've become soft, immature, our vitality compromised.
Many women in our thirties are rethinking the cultural programming that discouraged us from having our babies at an age that would afford us the energy and resilience to more easily bear the challenges of motherhood, while garnering the support from our own parents. There are plenty of benefits to building up wisdom, life experience, and financial resources before you have kids, but there’s grief too. What happens when we exclusively put our self-worth into our careers or accomplishments instead of embodying the portal of life and death that is our birthright as women?
Today's guest, body worker and poly-vagal nerve practitioner Danielle Evans, helps people heal their nervous system. Danielle shares about her process deprogramming from liberal feminist rhetoric and discusses how the surface of our skin connects to the deepest layers of our nervous system. Danielle reminds us that the body remembers everything from pre-birth to our present moment, and explains how we can self-source safety in our body and quiet the anxious mind.
