37. Feeling Whole Starts with Feeling Held

Feeling whole as a mixed person does not start with the perfect description of your identity, it starts with a body that feels held. As a mixed person, you might not have felt held by anyone, anywhere, which has amplified the impulse to describe yourself in fractions, hide aspects of your personality, or avoid social situations altogether. But the truth is that most humans lack the experience of feeling held. In today’s episode, I’m talking about the colonial roots of feeling existentially unheld, the unique impact on mixed race people, and how somatics can help you finally find sources of support where you can feel held. Because when your body feels held, you stop scanning the room for who might reject you, and you can actually be present instead of performing.

36. Multicentriçism with Chiyuki Shannon and Friends

This is a special episode because it's a group discussion with mixed elder and founder of the Multicentric Institute, Chiyuki Shannon, and other mixed community leaders, Bee Barba-Padilla, T Barba-Padilla, Lili Stiefel, and Preston Locklear. In this episode, we discuss Multicentriçism, which describes the worldview of mixed-race, minoritized individuals who come from split genetic, philosophical, and cultural frames of reference; who think, communicate, and access information from more than one frame of reference at the same time without confusion, utilizing multiple levels of sensitivity transmission.

34. Are You Seeing Red Flags Where There Are None?

If you’re primarily measuring your friendships based on whether your friends completely understand you, agree with you, or meet your every need all the time, you might be missing out on meaningful relationships. In this episode, I share a personal story about something a friend said to me about mixed people that could have easily triggered me, and how somatics has helped me pause and ground myself before throwing a way a perfectly good relationship.

33. Do You Have a Mixed Race Belonging Wound?

Do you find yourself opting out of cultural spaces because you might be seen as an imposter? Avoiding getting involved in movement work because you're not sure if you deserve to be there?

32. Roots, Rights, and Responsibilities of Being Mixed Black

Blackness is one of the most surveilled and policed identities in the United States, which means that being a mixed person with Black heritage comes with a unique set of challenges – and opportunities. In this episode, I sit down with my mentor, elder, book coach, and friend TaRessa Stovall to discuss how to navigate Black culture as a mixed Black person, particularly if you didn’t grow up deeply embedded in Black culture. If you’ve ever wondered, am I Black enough?, this episode is for you.
