315 - Beyond the Quick Fix: Holding Space for What Wants to Emerge with Quanita Roberson
Share your thoughts about our conversation!
Sometimes, just sometimes, you meet someone who is a balm to the soul, who speak words of wisdom, magic, and nurturing depth. Quanita Roberson has this gift - and she returns to the show to share it with us once again!
Mingling spiritual intelligence with raw human experience, Quanita guides us generously through the messy yet beautiful terrain of healing, as we trace emotions back to their source and learn how to step away from adolescent adulthood.
She brings us into the heart of questions like: how do we grieve? What does courage really mean? And why do people find it easier to talk about gender than race?
Find out about:
- Why shame, blame and guilt are not emotions, but rather where we go to hide from them
- The initiations of our life, and why we must embrace crumbling to make space for the new
- The importance of going inwards to find our wisdom to help the world
- Why there aren’t different ways to grieve, but rather different ways to avoid it
- The importance of embodying our emotions, allowing them to move through us
