Shrieking Violets | Season 1 Episode 9
The Dharma Diaries
11/28/23 • 49 min
In this Thanksgiving episode, we give a couple pointers about navigating holiday gatherings...which would have been more useful to have PRIOR to T-Day, but time is an illusion anyway, sooo...yeah. Anyway, we also discuss eating our words, paradoxes, unsubscribing from societal constructs, speaking our own authentic truths, belonging vs fitting in, and being with each other in disagreement. Enjoy!
The book Summer references in this episode is You Belong: A Call for Connection by Sebene Selassie.

Why You Buy Slaughter Houses | Season 3 | Episode 32
The Dharma Diaries
11/12/24 • 64 min
Fun girl hang with guest Amiee Ball. Holidays, homogeneity, and herding. Recorded pre-election and we’re both pretty candid and open people who share a personal philosophy of ‘live and let live’—in case that’s triggering for anyone. I’m experiencing major brain fog during this recording sesh and I almost edited out most of this...but f—k it. Raw and unfiltered.
