    S1 E13 - Internal Abolition with Lutze Segu, MSW

    This episode's guest, Lutze B Segu, MSW guides us towards the concept of internal abolition, freeing ourselves internally in order to fully engage in the lives we deserve. We've been trained to be "chronic overlovers" who serve our communities without providing service to ourselves first. Lutze challenges this old belief and shows us how to center our own health and freedom. She also gives us insight into the world of social work and how social workers can empower, and not enable, their clients. Pearls of wisdom from Lutze: "Healthy people create healthy communities" - @feministgriote "What is my sacred yes? How do I center my needs, my wants and my pleasures?" - @feministgriote "What does it mean to be a happy black woman in the US?" @feministgriote You can learn more about Lutze at the following sites: Her Site: http://thefeministgriote.com/ Twitter: http://www.twitter.com/feministgriote
