Manage episode 510021465 series 3577421
In this episode, I’m diving into a topic that can feel heavy, painful, and all too familiar for many of us - lateral violence. We’ll talk about the deep roots of this cycle in colonization, residential schools, and intergenerational trauma - and why understanding this helps us see it’s not about you, but about the wounds others carry. Most importantly, I’ll share how to hold yourself powerfully, protect your energy, and keep showing up in your truth and authentic expression.
If you’ve ever been on the receiving end of judgment, criticism, or sideways energy from your own community, this episode will give you the perspective and tools to rise above it with grace, strength, and clarity.
In this episode, I riff on:
- what lateral violence is
- why it's so prevalent
- examples of how it shows up
- how to navigate without perpetuating more harm
- a solutions-forward approach to lateral violence
