Quote: “Every system of oppression and power thrives when we do not. And, they thrive by stripping us of our humanity, of our capacity for joy and meaning and connection and belonging.”
– Dr. Tanmeet Sethi
Today’s guest is the incredible Dr. Tanmeet Sethi, author of Joy Is My Justice: Reclaiming What Is Yours. After Aiyla was born, I faced my own challenges as a new mother of two while writing That Sucked. now what? Tanmeet, mother of three, was still a practicing medical doctor while writing hers!
This conversation is the best of both worlds. Logic and emotion. With some scientific explanations, Tanmeet explains how she continually turns the tables on pain, transforming it into pure joy! Together, we unpack the fascinating idea that joy isn’t just a feel-good emotion; it’s a potent form of justice.
In this episode we talk about…
- Navigating the complexities of raising a child with chronic illness and tapping to the inner strength.
- How stimulating the vagus nerve can lead to feelings of safety and motivate positive change.
- Practical tips for integrating joy into daily life, including movement and mindfulness practices.
