Read the article “Why I’m no Longer Gender Critical” mentioned in the episode here.
Join StoicMom and Regina as they explore the challenges of navigating relationships when beliefs clash, the importance of authentic curiosity in conversations, and the struggle to transcend rigid identities. They discuss the relationship between pain and growth, and how the most difficult circumstances in life will provide the necessary crucible for personal transformation. They touch on the need for self-awareness in navigating personal identity and parenting, and discuss the importance of questioning our own narratives to determine whether we’re viewing our selves and our children through a fearful or faithful lens.
Other topics explored include the complexities of identity, the significance of embracing vulnerability, and the challenges of holding opposing truths in parenting decisions. StoicMom and Regina also discuss the importance of radical acceptance if we’re to be big enough to support our children. They end by touching briefly on boundaries and our distorted ideas of justice.
