  • Irresponsible Platforming

    My heart breaks noticing the title of this podcast and then witnessing the platforming of disinformation. This is not nonduality. This is not love and compassion and healing. This is spreading information that is leading to more death and destruction of indigenous people while wearing the costume of being awake. It’s sad to see.

  • Great speakers!

    I knew of some of the guests speakers, and now have learned of so many more. This is one of the only spaces that are doing “the work” without spiritual bypassing injustices and incorporating indigenous voices. Thank you!
