S. 3, Ep. 01 - Toxic Wokeness (& How Compassion Can Help.)
In our Season 3 premiere, we get right into it and talk about the potential dangers of cancel culture, discuss the fragility of wokeness, and learn a tiny bit about Cognitive Distortion.
It’s not an easy topic to broach and we’d be lying if we said we felt comfortable divulging our messy innards. But we truly believe that opening up conversations about being “woke” and the hypocrisy that often lurks close by is important if we’re to find and strengthen bridges in this highly polarized sociopolitical landscape. We also end by talking about how important it is to have a balanced diet of varied of news sources, how to check if you’re getting caught up in news-tertainment that’s designed to rile up your emotions, and where to apply compassion towards others and ourselves when it comes to our sociopolitical stances.
