Being Secure in an insecure world

Hey Humans, this is another super special episode with another super special guest. Being adopted gave me this special gift of being able to naturally and intuitively understand that humans can connect in deep and personal ways. Some call this family, some love and I now would call it community. I speak to every human in my life about building a community of care. To me, this means, understanding that all relationships for which I am involved with another human should involve some aspect of care in order to help cultivate community bonds. These are built when we take care in simple interactions such as being pleasant to the cashier at the store or trying to breath through our stress when stuck in traffic or learning to zipper merge, but having patience for those who haven't. This also means going on vibes when it comes to services you value. Plenty of humans have the skills, you should get things like; medical/dental/any health care, hair stylists, food, emotional support and cultivate joy with humans whom you trust and value. Like I always say, you gotta like your therapist or it isn't gonna work no matter how "qualified" they are. Cultivating a community of care takes a different kind of process than most of us have been taught through our capitalistic colonial systems. I am grateful for my adoption history, my loving family biological and chosen and the many amazing women and men of color and LGBTQ's in my life who have shown me in so many ways what care means, what community means and how important it is to our sense of security in this wild ass world.
