What a heartwarming conversation with my dear friend Thérèse Cator.
In this episode, Thérèse and I discuss the effects of assimilation on our bodies, healing, identity, and more. We also discuss how healing can emerge when we are in spaces where we can be in our full humanity and don't have to be in a state of hypervigilance.
